• 10 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my communication with the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC) on this particular matter is--- I believe that within six days, we will finalise this matter and the land will be reverted back to its original use. view
• 10 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is a totally different Question and if my attention is drawn to it, I will revisit the issue and see the way forward. view
• 10 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I invite my colleague to put up a Question and I will go through my documents in the Ministry and then give him an appropriate answer. view
• 10 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as to whether they are councilors or not--- I believe they are just Kenyans because, in my records, they are known as Denis Kimeru Gachoka and Moses Mwangi Ndungu. Since I do not come from that particular area, it might be difficult for me to say whether they are councilors or not. But be that as it may, with the new Constitution, I believe that once we start putting the necessary laws into place, something will happen to all those people who have grabbed public utility land. view

• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the work done by these members, but the fact is that sometimes we do not have adequate funds to accommodate these officers. However, as of now, we have paid the amount of money that I have told my colleague. I would ask him to go to the registry and check with the Lands Officer and ensure that these people are paid, if they have not been paid. However, I believe this money has already been released to the relevant district for purposes of payment. view
• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have said that in some areas, we have not paid. This is because we do not have the funds. We are trying to push the Treasury to release money to us, so that we can, at least, pay these officers. view
• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when it comes to funding, I would like to seek the assistance of this House, so that I could have enough money to pay these members. They are really doing a good job, but the fact is that sometimes we do not get what we request from the Treasury. view
• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, what I was trying to demonstrate is that we have actually written to the Treasury seeking more funds, so that we can clear the outstanding debts. I am asking the House to support me when my budget comes before the House. view
