• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, we are seeking to remove those referencing errors. view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 624 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (3) — (a) in paragraph (a) by deleting the words “seven hundred and twenty” and substituting therefor the word “fifty”; (b) in paragraph (b) by deleting the words “three hundred and sixty” and substituting therefor the word “twenty”.

Therefore, its reduction ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Bill, this is our very considered position between ICPSK, ICPAK and the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. This was a retreat sponsored by the two institutions. It was a meeting that was not held in vain. It was a well-attended meeting by all the three sides. It is unfortunate that I have just received the documents from the law firm that was representing ICPSK. It was also attended by lecturers from Management University of Africa (MUA). It was a well-attended and reasoned meeting. I am not saying that you are not reasoning. It was a consensus building exercise. view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I would like to plead with my good friend, Hon. Nassir that we leave the Bill the way it is.

This is a country that has a high rate of unemployment. If ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: ( Question of the amendment proposed) view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Yes. I do. What Hon. Nassir is advancing or stating is not favouring small companies. In fact, it is to the contrary. It is the proposal by the Committee, ICPSK and ICPAK which is actually favouring the small companies. His is to the contrary. We are expanding the small companies. What he is trying to do is reduce or completely do away with small companies. We are saying his is inimical to business. His proposal is inimical to business. Let hon. Members not be misled that the small threshold of 2.5 is business friendly. It is not. It is inimical. ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Hon. Nassir’s amendment that has been approved is an omnibus clause that cuts across all of them so that whenever the Cabinet Secretary makes a decision, it applies to the other sections as well, including this one which we are seeking to amend. I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 625 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (4)— (a) in paragraph (a) by deleting the words “seven hundred and twenty million shillings net or eight hundred and sixty-five million shillings gross” and substituting therefor the words “fifty million shillings”; and, (b) in paragraph (b) ... view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 655 of the Bill be amended— (a) in sub-clause (4)(b)(i) by inserting the word “impact” immediately after the words “including the”; and, (b) by renumbering sub-clause (8) and (7) as (7) and (8) respectively. This is purely to insert the word that was missing and to correct what was incorrectly numbered. Thank you. view
• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 678 of the Bill be amended by deleting the words “section 686” and substituting therefor the words “section 676”. This is purely to remove the errors in numbering. view
