• 29 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the families of people that police shoot and and kill are normally bereaved. What does the Government do to compensate their families when they find that it is their fault that those innocent Kenyans have been killed? Does the Government have any policy to compensate the families of those bereaved? view
• 29 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Energy when electricity will be supplied to Rabar Market, Uradi Catholic Church and Rabar Health Centre. view
• 29 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the normal procedure under rural electrification is that, Members of Parliament through their District Development Committees (DDCs) pass recommendations to the Ministry on where power is to be supplied. Let me also correct the Minister that it is "Rabar" Market and not "Radar" Market as he said. It was supposed to go the market centre nearby. Uradi Catholic Church was being included because it has a missionary hospital within its premises. Could the Minister tell us why, after the design, everything was included and the Minister had supplied Kshs9 million, it was altered without coming and ... view
• 29 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am surprised that the Government does not recognise mission hospitals as part of their plan for supply of electricity. There is a market near the church which is called Uradi Market. Why did somebody alter the design whereas the DDC had recommended, and the Ministry had already allocated funds to supply electricity to the market place? This would have covered the Catholic church. view
• 29 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to talk on this Motion. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the ambassadors of this country have not lived up to their expectations. If you go to respective countries, you will find that many of them are not aware of their duties. We send some of our people to work as ambassadors and yet, some of them are military officers, bishops and even politicians, without both critically looking at their credentials and training them properly. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think the duty of ambassadors is to market their countries in ... view
• 29 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Attorney-General should have taken the opportunity to call the Kenya High Commission in the United Kingdom and find out whether the company called Anglo Leasing Finance Limited actually existed or it only existed on paper. Before giving out a tender, we should always verify the existence, or otherwise, of the physical address of the company to which the tender is being awarded. All that an ambassador has to do is drive his vehicle to the premises where the company is said to be housed and find out whether the Government is, indeed, getting into ... view
• 23 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Mr. Kajwang says that he has some evidence. Could he produce the evidence that he says he has? view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Local Government:- (a) whether he could inform the House how much money was allocated for the construction of the new Ngiya Market in Siaya; (b) whether the tender for the construction has been awarded; and, (c) when the construction is likely to commence. view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. You heard the Assistant Minister state, clearly, that the market will be redesigned, yet the design has already been done. The Assistant Minister knows very well that when we give a contractor a job, there must be performance bonds and bid bonds in order to cover the costs in case the contractor fails to do his job. What will the Assistant Minister do to ascertain that the performance bonds are withdrawn from his contract? The proceeds from the performance bonds will enable the Ministry to invite fresh bids and award the tender to another contractor ... view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister knows very well that at the end of every financial year, the money that is allocated to a project, if not utilised, goes back to Treasury. Could he tell us genuinely when he plans to tender that project and whether money has been allocated in this year's Budget? I also mentioned the deregistering of the contractor. The contractors change the names of the company and continue doing the same jobs. view
