• 26 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This Bill does not refer to men or women, but to all sexes. Is the hon. Member in order to mislead the House that this is directed at men? view
• 26 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the inference here is that if the employer is a woman and she demands sex, she is equally guilty. Is the hon. Member in order to mislead the House that this is only referring to men when he knows that, in fact, it applies to women? view
• 25 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I, like my colleagues who spoke earlier on, stand to oppose 644 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES April 25, 2006 this Motion. I do not want to belabour the point that this country cannot develop if we continue to spend most of our meagre resources, merely in consumption; when we put too much money in Recurrent Estimates at the expense of development. Therefore, looking at the Supplementary Estimates, one is saddened that we are reducing the very little we had provided for in the Printed Estimates. When you look at the Printed Estimates, you will see that we had allocated ... view

• 19 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the interest being expressed by hon. Members on this Question. I represent the largest slum in Africa South of the Sahara. Kibera has a population of nearly one million people. The conditions of living in the slums are pathetic. We have what we call "flying toilets". Somebody relieves himself on a piece of newspaper, raps it and throws it away. The slum upgrading project the Minister is talking about is under the Ministry of Housing and not the Ministry of Local Government. The Question before us is asking what the Ministry is doing as ... view
