• 2 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has said that in the next few weeks, they will ask the local authorities to come up with a list of all the projects. Why should this be the case since each local authority has an auditing section? Does the Ministry ever go to the ground to find out whether these projects have been implemented or not? If they do not do that, when will they do that? view
• 2 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State, Office of the President:- (a) whether he is aware that Mr. Ramadhan Mohamed Baghazal has an outstanding account with the Central Police Station for the supply of prisoner meals to the tune of Kshs1,655,660; and, (b) what urgent measures he is taking to ensure that this account is cleared. view
• 2 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am actually surprised by the answer given by the Assistant Minister. The Office of the President is rated number one in corruption because of this exercise of paying contractors by instalments. Could the Assistant Minister tell this House why these contractors are being paid by instalments and whether they are also considering the issue of paying interest while paying the principal amount? view
• 2 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, to the best of my knowledge, every Ministry comes to this House when estimates are being presented, and the budget was just read a few months ago. I do not know why the Assistant Minister cannot tell this House why this debt was not factored in the estimates so that it could be cleared in the financial year 2005/2006, instead of it being carried forward to 2006/2007. view

• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am amazed by the answer given by the Assistant Minister because my Question was actually why there has been a delay in releasing the Report. The history of Bombolulu fire tragedy will never get out of our minds because of the loss of 22 children who perished in this particular fire tragedy. In fact, the parents have, time and again, tried to pursue this matter by seeking legal advise and the only bottleneck was the fact that the Report has not been released. This is because where there are recommendations, there must be some findings. What ... view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my question is: Before any recommendations are made, there must be some findings. What we are the findings of the Commission? The Assistant Minister said that the Commission made some recommendations. Parents of the deceased children are eager to know the findings of the Commission. What is the fate of the children who perished in the inferno, if there were any findings? view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister provide this House with the terms of reference that were given to the Commission? Up to now, the Commission has not come up with any findings. The import of establishing the Commission was to establish the cause of the fire so that the parents of the deceased children could know where they stand as far as compensation for loss of their loved ones is concerned. view
