  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is the same old story. It falls completely short of what we intend to achieve in this matter. As I had said earlier, the Kaparo-Haji Committee needs to be facilitated more.

  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: But I need to acknowledge whether it is sufficient. If it is not sufficient, it is my duty to bring this to the attention of the Chair so that she can make the necessary orders. That is my intention. view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: The Chairman, through the Government response said that there is what we call rangeland grazing modalities. We are saying that the new Constitution says that land is free. We have lost that position where communities acknowledge that rangeland is managed by communities. That is why I sought that, that mechanism be put in place to address this matter. Nothing has been done and they talk about rangeland which is not acknowledged by the communities. That is where we have a problem and that is the reason for the trouble. view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to draw your attention to this.

  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. The undertaking that we will interrogate this matter during the session with the Cabinet Secretary and other Government operatives is welcome, but there is something I did not get clearly.

Is that the understanding that I need to carry home from the Chair? view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I was asking the Chair whether he intends to have the National Land Commission as a sub-committee to look into this matter and, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I was asking the Chair whether he intends to have the National Land Commission as a sub-committee to look into this matter and, therefore, satisfy my need for a judicial commission of inquiry to investigate the origin, both probable and immediate, of this conflict.
