• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: It is based on this that I move that the House adopts the Report of the Departmental Committee on Health on the Ratification of the Protocol to Eliminate Illicit Trade in Tobacco Products. I thank the Members of the Departmental Committee on Health for their continued support to the Committee and their dedication to make sure that we pass the laws that are required to govern this country, especially on health matters. As I thank them, I would like to call upon Hon. (Dr.) Nyikal to second. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. ... view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the outset, I would like to thank Members of my Committee for the commitment they have shown. We have considered several amendments, Bills and this Protocol. We have even visited facilities under the national Government. We have always had a quorum and Members have shown a lot of commitment. I thank them for the support they have given me as the Chair. That is why we were able to submit this Report to the House. view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: We have several reports like the one on Kenyatta University and another one about an investigation on a person who was charged a lot of money. We have submitted them to the House. We hope before we go on recess, we will address them by moving the Motions so that our work is fruitful. view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: As I thank the Members, I want to thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for your patience and for giving us an opportunity to express what is in this Protocol on issues to do with tobacco and people who use it. Members have expressed themselves on non-communicable diseases, health matters, performance and marriages breaking. I am sure Kenyans see photos on magazine covers of tobacco products. When they see the photos, let them not assume that they are just there to threaten them. It is the reality because that is happening. view

• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.53(3), I request that we defer putting the Question to another day. view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. At the outset, I want to really thank the Mover of this Bill, the Seconder and the men of this House who have spoken about this Bill. As you have already mentioned, this Bill is not just about women but gender. By the look of things, when these Members of Parliament go to primary schools, high schools, universities and the corporate world, you will note that women are rising slowly. I would like to urge Members of this House to support this Bill because you never know. We are talking about shortage of women this time ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: If you look at Article 81 of the Constitution on the things that we have not attained in this Constitution, gender equality is something that we tried in the 11th Parliament. We did not manage to get the numbers. This time, I beg my brothers and sisters who are in this House to stand to be counted as Members who have actually passed this Bill. It has already been mentioned about the Hon. ladies. I want to address the worries that have been raised in this House and outside, and especially in the media about the calibre of the women ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I have Hon. Shamalla. If you go to the dictionary on who a slay king is, I do not see any characteristic in her. Hon. Shamalla is not a slay king. She is a woman who is doing great work in her Committee on Delegated Legislation. We have seen great progress in that Committee on the work they are doing. We have women who are honourable in this nation. We have Article 27 of the Constitution that gives the powers to this House to legislate. I want to tell the men in this House to kindly relax. We are going ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: House, the county assemblies or the Senate is a matter that we can rest because we can legislate in this House. view
