• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: With these few remarks, I support the Motion. Thank you very much. view
• 19 Jun 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity, and to start off, I stand here to support this Motion. I do also wish to appreciate some comments made by Sen. (Dr.) Kuti with regard to the way we seem to do things in our country; a sort of piecemeal approach instead of doing one marshal plan to sort out a major problem like youth unemployment. However, Madam Temporary Speaker, can you allow me to bring an issue which, perhaps, may not have been raised by any of the other speakers; which is; what is the fundamental source of ... view
• 19 Jun 2013 in Senate: 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
• 18 Jun 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I just wish to – in connection with that statement and other requests for statements like that – seek your direction or your guidance. In the history of Parliament, where we were before, we had Members of the Executive – Ministers in the House – and they used to answer Questions, but now we do not have them. So, we have our own, maybe Majority Leader or, maybe a Committee Chairman, doing that work. But now we have broken that rule completely because the Cabinet Secretary of Finance went to the National ... view
• 23 May 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Chairman, Sir. You did give direction on how to proceed and we all agreed to it. But having agreed that we are all in a learning process and so on, I am just wondering what Standing Order we are breaking, if we said that we are voting for Clause 2 as amended and Clause 3 as amended, especially in situations where we already know that during the debate there was no opposition to it. Why would we not--- view
• 7 May 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me the opportunity to support that amendment. I do support the main Motion of establishing a university in every county. However, if you see the trend in our country in the last five or ten years, there has been a move, I do not know whether it is by the Government or all of us, to actually kill the technical colleges. When you look at what used to be Kenya Polytechnic, it is now a university. What used to be called Mombasa Polytechnic is gone. We had colleges of science and technology ... view
• 25 Apr 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 25 Apr 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to seek guidance from the Chair. There is an invitation I have received from the Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution (CIC). I believe every hon. Senator has received such an invitation for a meeting scheduled sometime in the coming week. Governors have also been invited. Whereas there is nothing wrong with hon. Senators and Governors meeting, but is it in order to get such an invitation from the CIC or other Government body with no reference to the Senate? On behalf of other hon. Senators, I wish to know whether this was done ... view
• 25 Apr 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker, Sir. Let me take this opportunity, first, to thank you and your Deputy for being elected to steer the business of this House. I would like to tell you that you are doing a very commendable job. Having said that, let me also take this opportunity to thank the people of Ndia for electing me to represent them in this House. I assure them that I will do my level best to represent them. view
• 25 Apr 2013 in National Assembly: I support the Motion. I will start by saying that the primary duty of NHIF is to facilitate the provision of health services. However, surcharging 500 per cent is punitive and cannot go towards helping the Jubilee Government in achieving the commitment to provide health services to all people by 2020. This is a high percentage. view
