• 22 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is about the fund we passed in the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act. My observation as I appreciate the response by the Chair, is that the regulations need to be hastened. Before implementation the regulations have to be in place, so they can show us how this money will be shared downwards. This is because we are talking about Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). We need to know how the money will be shared out among the different cadres. Again, we are also interested in knowing how it will be shared out among the ... view
• 17 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary of Health the following Question: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide a list of nurses who were deployed and seconded to work in the Republic of Namibia and those whose contracts have expired and are out of employment and are yet to be reinstated as directed by the President? (ii) Could the Cabinet Secretary explain why the said nurses were not receiving their salaries and allowances despite having been seconded by the Government of Kenya? (iii) What steps is the Ministry taking for their immediate reinstatement? view
• 17 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you. I am the Deputy Minority Leader, Hon. Speaker. I am acting Minority Leader because my Leader is in Migori fighting the battle there. view

• 17 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me the opportunity to also make a contribution on this issue of NG-CDF audit. We all know that this is the most visible fund in the country. We have devolved funds. The counties have billions. However, if you go to every constituency in Kenya, from front, back, right and left, the projects that you will see are NG-CDF-funded projects. It is a Fund that has actually supported the people of this country. In fact, on the issue of education, parents used to contribute to build schools, toilets and classes. Now I think in most ... view
• 17 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: near, but you have about a kilometre where those stones, sand, ballast, and the cement will be pushed using wheelbarrow. We all know that the country is not fully developed. Therefore, it is important that those things be taken into consideration because, sometimes, you may make a comment and it is used against a Member that "you spent Kshs1.2 million", but the reality is that every region and area has its own cost and that is why we work with the project management committees. Hon. Speaker, there is again a difference in cost when you construct a class using the ... view

• 17 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I wish to point out a few issues on Clause 3. The first one, of course, it is important to note the language used when we are making law. In Clause 3(1), it is said: “… the employee shall be entitle to…” It should be “entitled to.” I do not know whether he can correct it because it is misplaced. view
• 17 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: It is not right for someone to correct it here if the Mover says: “As per the Order Paper.” The other one is in Clause 3(b). I have concerns because it says: “An employee who is eligible for leave under Subsection (3a) shall give the employer not less than seven days’ written notice in advance...” It then goes further to say: “or a shorter period as it may be reasonable in the circumstances”. You cannot have in the same law two options; that you give seven days or a shorter period. It is either seven days minimum or remove the ... view
