• 30 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister is saying that the contractor has resumed work. One would assume that by the time the contractor is resuming work, he has already submitted a revised work programme which has been approved by the Ministry. If he has done so, could the Assistant Minister be kind enough to inform the House when this project will likely be completed? view
• 29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, day in, day out, we hear these kind of excuses in this House. The Front Bench represents the Government and there is what we call collective responsibility. Why should the House be treated to this kind of irresponsibility all the time? If the Minister is not there, the Government exists. I would like to invite your ruling on this matter to the effect that a Minister who is not able to answer Questions is censored by the House. view
• 29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the situation in police stations around the country is pathetic.

• 28 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister is not serious in answering the Question. If the design was done in 1991, what is being done now is design review, but not a new design. The Ministry has adequate internal capacity to design review without even having to tender. Could the Assistant Minister inform the House why there were no responses from so many consultants in the country to carry out a simple design review of this particular road? Can he give the reasons? view
• 28 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I do not want to 3990 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES November 28, 2006 interrupt hon. Omingo but is he in order to refer to the Government as the "NARC Government" when we now know that it is the so-called "the Government of National Unity"? view

• 28 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to inform the hon. Member that one of them has just been registered as the Chairman of KANU by this Government. view
• 22 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Question is not directed to the right Ministry. The Ministry of Finance is not responsible for the Government vehicles. That responsibility rests with the Ministry of Roads and Public Works. So, I wonder how the Minister for Finance is going to answer the Question. view
