• 24 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I am also supporting. You know there was that feature on television yesterday and I believe that is really influencing all of us. We watched what is happening in South Sudan. Hon. Speaker, a stable South Sudan will present a lot of opportunities to this country including availability of job opportunities for Kenyans. They are currently lacking teachers and you know I was a teacher. We have many teachers in this country who have been trained but they are lacking employment. This is because Parliament votes very little money for the Ministry of Education, Science and ... view
• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have risen to support this Budget Policy Statement. We are looking forward to dealing with this issue so that we can sort out the issues of division of revenue. Going through this Report, I am seeing there is a proposal that we will have Kshs.8.8 billion in the national Government and the country governments will have about Kshs.217 billion. I want to concentrate on issues of development, which the people who sent me to this House can identify with. view
• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: There was that proposal from the National Treasury of Kshs.239 billion. I would have supported that, so that we have more resources being devolved to the counties. I may not get the rationale why it has been reduced to Kshs.217 billion. That is because when I do my mathematical calculations that translate to 21 per cent of the resources that are going to be available nationally. When I go through this Report--- view

• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I was going through this breakdown and I am very good at breakdowns. Last time, we did not capture the breakdown which was there, especially in the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, where Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KERRA) was left without funds. I do not know if we will be rubber stamping this list again. I hope there is something for KERRA in this Report. The money allocated to KERRA, at least, should be twice what was allocated previously. That is the money we need to use in our constituencies for development. The one for Constituencies ... view
• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: development? Where is this money for development going? Is it simply appearing on paper, but it is nowhere to do development projects? Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker the allocation for National Treasury is Kshs30 billion. I wonder what kind of development they will do at the Treasury. I wish we could have adequate time to interrogate all this. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Ministry of Industrialization and Enterprise Development is a key Ministry and for development, it has only been given Kshs4 billion. That is peanuts when we are talking about special economic zones so that we can spur development in ... view

Last time, we did not capture the breakdown which was there, especially in the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, where Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KERRA) was left without funds. I do not know if we will be rubber stamping this list again. We will be approving something without KERRA included. I hope there is something for KERRA in this Report.
