• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, there is a joke that is going on behind me that, in fact, Kenya Airways overflies counties and that includes constituencies and wards. We need a serious ruling on this matter. Otherwise, we will be duplicating the roles of the National Assembly. It is not that we lack capacity; it is just that we are very serious people in the manner we do things. We do not rush. That is why the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing has taken its time to examine matters first before they call Kenya Airways. We do not act in ... view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: that are properly located in the National Assembly. They have gone to the Supreme Court. We need to be very clear. We are not saying that the Senate has no role on any issues. Their issues are well defined in the Constitution. On the other hand, we are not saying that we are jealous of what they are trying to do. What we are saying is that we should not use taxpayers’ money to do work that is supposed to be in the purview of the National Assembly. I am calling upon you, Hon. Speaker, to make a ruling on ... view

• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No. 83, as read together with Standing Order No. 107. While I was walking down the aisle, Hon. Savula was shouting that the Speaker is biased. Everybody heard. We are just asking him to be an honourable Member. This is not a market place. This is a place of honour. You cannot be dishonourable when you are called an honourable Member of Parliament. The most important thing that you can do is to apologise and say: “I am sorry.” He is not going to die for saying: “I am ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I must thank you for being very patient with some of us despite the untenable language that we use once in a while in the House. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, this House adopts Sessional Paper No.4 of 2014 on the Governance, Justice, Law and Order Sector (GJLOS) Policy laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 12th February, 2015. This is an extremely important policy statement that deals with governance, justice, law and order. The development of policy on the Governance, Justice, and Law and Order Sector (GJLOS) in ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, the creation of the GJLOS was rationalised on the basis of recognition of the interlinkages of the mandates of the GJLOS institutions. This policy will guide decisions to achieve certain outcomes in the sector. It is important to note that the Government’s intentions and statements in relation to the sector are much wider. It provides direction in terms of programmes and actions needed to achieve the required policy outcomes. This sector policy anchors governance, justice, law and order reforms on a broader national development and political context, particularly with regard to Vision 2030, and, more importantly, the ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: been passed even by this House. That has become difficult in terms of compliance with the laws that this House and many other institutions have passed. The law is also not easily accessible to the citizens, both physically and in terms of language. The language that is used is a little bit technical. This policy wants to ensure that laws are available across the country. The policy also seeks to inculcate the process of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and traditional justice mechanisms in dealing with disputes, which is an inexpensive process of settling disputes amongst Kenyans. With those remarks, I ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT the Bill be amended in Clause 26 by deleting the phrase “section 7” and substituting therefor the phrase “section 12”. The import of this amendment is that we are seeking to correct the cross-referencing which was an error. This is purely removal of an error in the phrase “section 7” and substituting therefor the phrase “section 12”, which ought to be Clause 12. view

• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: THAT, the Bill be amended in Clause 62 by deleting paragraph (e). Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, we are seeking to remove the extra paragraph that is contained in Clause 62 as it is a repetition. We are just deleting that. view
