• 5 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am shocked that a Maseno High School old boy can stand up and come up with such a point of order. That is not what we learned when we were in Maseno! We must face reality. We are seeking help from the people behind the speed governors; the remote-controlled gadgets. We are seeking help from our engineers and scientists. That is a fact. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me take this opportunity to thank the people behind the Ministry of Transport, the PS and his team for a job well done. ... view
• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just wanted to say that contrary to what has been reported that this Bill would not be considered, it has, indeed, been considered. Again, contrary to what has been reported, that we are trying to ban the smoking of tobacco, that has not been done. We have only controlled the places where smokers can smoke so that they do not inconvenience non-smokers. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have never smoked a cigarette in my life and--- view

• 1 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion that has been introduced by my friend and neighbour, Mr. Karaba. I think everybody can agree that this is a 2906 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES August 1, 2007 very important Motion in the sense that we have many dropouts. We have pupils dropping out from Standard VIII. Instead of joining form one, they just stop at Standard VIII. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in this House, we talk about the protection of the girl- child. In my constituency, the problem is completely different. ... view
• 25 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that Mr. Dominic Kipkemboi Sang worked as an accounts clerk Grade RB II with the Kenya Railways Corporation at the Regional Accountant's office, Nakuru. I am also aware that he worked for the corporation from 11th July, 1991 to 8th July, 2000 when, unfortunately, he passed away. (b) I am aware that his dues and benefits have not been paid to his next of kin to date. The deceased worked for Kenya Railways for eight years and nine months and had not completed the requisite ten years of continuous ... view
• 25 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: I am sorry, Mr. Speaker, Sir. (c) The dues and benefits of the deceased have been computed and will be paid to his next of kin as soon as the District Commissioner, Nandi, provides a bank account number to the Public Trustee through which the amount should be channelled. Currently, all the corporation's retirement dues are disbursed through electronic fund transfer in line with the ongoing concessioning programme funded by the World Bank. view
• 25 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is correct. The confusion arose when his father also claimed to be a dependant, but that has been sorted out. Therefore, the necessary information has been received and the wife will be paid the amount that I have mentioned. You can use that as authority. Give us the bank account and she will have the money within a week. view
• 25 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir the answer to part "a" of his Question is, yes. The Kenya Railways Corporation has now been funded by the World Bank and almost all the retirees have now been paid. Rift Valley Railways never took over the employees. They have their own employees. Unless the hon. Member is talking about performance in rail transport, hopefully, they have given us an undertaking that they will improve the services that were offered by the Kenya Railways Corporation. view
• 25 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the man was married and the name of the wife is Ms. Jane Makoko, ID No.103377986. It is very important that we advise Kenyans to be updating their nomination of beneficiaries. You will find that somebody is married, he marries another wife, but he does not update the beneficiaries on the nomination form. It is very important that these forms are updated as and when there is a change in the legal marriage status. view
• 18 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. This is a very important Motion. I would like to congratulate my friend; Mr. Jimmy Angwenyi, for coming up with it. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is true that the NARC manifesto promised to create 500,000 jobs annually. However, these jobs were to come from all sectors; both the informal and formal. In fact, the sector that has created a lot of jobs is the informal sector. This is the sector that we really need to support. This is the sector that we need to put a ... view
