• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Agriculture:- (a) whether she is aware that one of the key constraints to increased sugar-cane production is lack of guaranteed and affordable credit facilities to small-scale farmers; (b) whether she can confirm that the Kenya Sugar Board (KSB) contracted the Agricultural Finance Corporation (AFC) to manage loan services to farmers and, if so, how many small-scale farmers have been targeted and how much money has been set aside for the purpose; and, (c) whether she could provide a list of all small-scale farmers who have benefited from the facility, indicating how much each has received. view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have just seen the Assistant Minister table a list which I would like to look at. However, there are over 500,000 farmers--- view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have an answer to the Question. However, in part “c” of the answer, the Assistant Minister says: “I hereby table a list of 1,052 farmers who benefitted.” So, I have not been able to see that list. So, could we be given some time to go through that list of 1,052 farmers? view
• 9 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: I am obliged, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 8 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for the answer. But I would like to ask him whether he could kindly also look at the issue of fraudulent title deeds that have been issued for the airport land in Kisumu. That land has been grabbed. So, before we see the sort of demolitions that took place in Nairobi, could you kindly look at that as a supplementary? view
• 3 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Minister comment on whether the Central Bank of Kenya or the Treasury is aware of an account held in Jersey by certain members of CMC Board and whether it is held in accordance with foreign exchange regulations. The account has an amount of Kshs200 million? view
• 2 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I heard the Assistant Minister, as he walked away, saying to you, Mr. Speaker: “Give me the money and I will pay.” Is it in order for him to ask the Speaker to pay the money? view
• 2 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister is not being very clear in his answer to Dr. Laboso. I would like to follow that one, please. When the young people go to ask for loans, they are asked to produce title deeds which they do not have. Secondly, was the Kshs300 million given to the banks given to them at an interest rate? Was it free or was it a donation? I would like you to clarify that one. view
• 2 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Finally, could you tell us, if you have that information, what sorts of loans were taken in every constituency? That is because youths from my constituency go to Co- operative Bank and are told that there are no forms. They go to K-Rep Bank and Equity Bank and they are told that there are no forms. Could you please answer those few questions for us, Sir? view
• 2 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it proper for Dr. Khalwale to impute improper motive on the Minister saying that she does not care and does not mind when poor people die? view
