• 24 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, after I requested this Statement, an incident occurred in my county in the same town. Thugs broke into the county government offices and stole computers, laptops and gas cylinders. As part of the Statement that I sought, one of the components was the alleged laxity of security officers. You will appreciate that a county Government is manned 24 hours by police officers. However, this is happening in the face of allegations by the public that some police officers are colluding with criminals. Would I be in order to request that the Deputy Senate Majority Leader, the ... view
• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, just to join my colleagues to congratulate and welcome staff members from Bungoma County and to indicate to them that their Senator is one of the most vibrant Senators in this House and that today he is not around because he is attending a very important baraza elsewhere in this town and, therefore, they should also take the message home that their Senator is a very vibrant Member of this House, but also has time to attend to other small functions out there. view
• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to appreciate and apologize for that misinformation but I want to confirm that the function happening in Nairobi today, he was part and parcel of the organizers--- view
• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in thanking Joel Kiprono Rop for the Petition. This gentleman is personally known to me. He is one of the informed, passionate and brilliant Kenyans. This is his second Petition to the Senate. Whereas I agree with my colleagues- -- view
• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, whereas I agree with my colleagues that the subject matter of this Petition is one that cannot be achieved through a Petition, it now lies with the relevant Committee of this House where the Petition will be committed to advise. I know that in the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights, we have on several occasions received such kind of petitions where we sit down and realize that what the petitioner is asking is impossible and we returned our verdict in a week or so and the same is communicated to him. Therefore, we should not ... view

• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to continue moving this Bill. The Office of the County Printer Bill (Sen. Bill No.42 of 2014) seeks to establish the office of the county printer as indicated so that we may have a county printer in each of the 47 counties. The establishment of the office is precipitated by the provisions of Section 23 of the County Governments Act. The County Governments Act and the Constitution clearly indicates that for legislation in our county assemblies to be effective: (1) it must be published under (a) in the County Gazette and (b) in the Kenya ... view
• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I wish to take this opportunity to thank my fellow colleagues who have supported this Bill. I thank Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., whom we have worked together with in the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights, throughout the process of developing this Bill. The important point that he raised is that one of the challenges that we have with the national Government Printer right now, is that they do publications and print them in hard copies. However, if you went to the internet, you will have challenges trying to find information relating to happenings within ... view
• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it includes participating in processes that are constitutional, dressed in a manner that the occasion dictates. Therefore, we will continue to make these sacrifices, but we also need a little more sacrifices from our counties to ensure that things work in the manner that we expect. I thank everybody who supported this Bill and hope that we will be able to fast-track the process and ensure that this Bill becomes law within the shortest time so that our counties are able to enjoy the services of the Office of the County Printer. I beg to move. ... view
