• 30 Sep 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Statement traditionally should be signed by the Cabinet Secretary. On the other hand, maybe we could accept the Statement if it was signed by a person with a title. But that person with a title should indicate that he or she signed on behalf of the Cabinet Secretary. Otherwise, anybody in the Ministry could say that they are answering a question. view
• 30 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, whereas I would like to thank the Chair for bringing this statement, it is very unfortunate that the Government of the Republic of Kenya is taking the matter of the IDPs very casually. It is also very unfortunate that seven years after the 2007/2008 Post-Election Violence (PEV), we are still talking about it to date. My specific request for clarification is: What was the criteria The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 30 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could I also know whether or not the Chairperson is aware that when the Cabinet Secretary (CS) announced in Nyandarua that the programme was over, IDPs from Nyandarua took to their feet to march to the State House, but they were stopped by the Government somewhere between Gilgil and Naivasha, yet the answer did not come? They were asking the same question: “Why were we given Kshs10,000 whereas others were given land, some Kshs400,000 while others were given both?” Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 29 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, mine is about the statement regarding the IDPs. Whereas Sen. Khaniri has requested for time to go through the answer and it is normal that a statement should be available to Members when it is brought to the House, I request that enough copies of the answer be availed because the issue of IDPs is very wide spread. It has come before this House a number of times. However, we have never had a proper answer, presuming this is one of them. Almost all Members are affected by the issue of IDPs. In Nyandarua, particularly, we ... view
• 29 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am speaking from previous experience when the issue of IDPs was raised. Sometimes you go to the Journals Office and find that they only have one or two copies. I request that many copies be availed so that we go through them in order to interrogate, respond or ask further questions on that. view
• 29 Sep 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Whereas the matter of the delegation from Bungoma County maybe settled, Sen. Wetangula raised an important issue; that he was not informed that there was a delegation from his county. I was equally not aware that there was a delegation coming from Nyandarua. I request the Chair to rule that when a delegation is coming from a particular county, the Senator for that county should be officially informed, so that he cannot just acknowledge but be fully aware and welcome them properly. view
• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: It is very much related. view
• 23 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. Njoroge is satisfied with the answer. However, from the answer that was given by the Chairman, it appears as if problems emanating from Samsung phones have something to do with counterfeits. I bought my phone from a Safaricom Shop who purported to be, by then, the only agents of Samsung S5 phones. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issues originally raised by Sen. Njoroge are such as a Samsung phone occasionally going off or when you write a message, some letters appear in capital. Assuming that Safaricom is not likely, I hope, to be dealing with counterfeits, could ... view
• 17 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Petition and urge that action be taken expeditiously. The NEMA was established in good faith and with good intentions, but I think that organization is not doing its job at all. Before the commencement of any major project, there is supposed to be a report prepared by NEMA. Sure, enough, they do actually give a report, but it looks like these reports are just for the sake of the contractor or whoever is building to go ahead. In that Petition, they have also cited the aspect of buildings in the neighbourhood developing ... view
• 15 Sep 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. First, let me take this opportunity to thank the Seconder and Senators who contributed to this Bill. I am delighted to see the kind of interest there is. Unfortunately, there seems to be some kind of tradition in this House that after a certain hour, Members become fairly few, but be that as it may, that is a discussion for another day. There are quite a number of issues raised here and there by various Members and I will try to summarise them by way of responding to various cardinal issues. One of them ... view
