• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this great opportunity to contribute to the Roads (Amendment) Bill. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: First of all, I am an Engineer and as my colleague has said, we take five years in the University. The program is very tight form 8:00 a.m. to 6: 00 p.m. I agree on this Bill for the extension of the Director General’s term from three to five years. It is clear that any progress especially in the road sector requires appropriate time. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Five years will suffice for effective and sufficient delivery of any infrastructure and development especially in roads where we have three authorities; the KeRRA, KURA and KeNHA. There should be a clear classification of the roads. Most of the roads in the rural areas before were classified under KeRRA and when the issues of the counties emerged some were devolved to the county governments. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: My colleague noted that even up to now, with the fuel levy money counties are not able to even manage the roads. In this case as I support this Bill about the DG’s qualification and the management, I would also propose – although I can see the issue of finances has not been mentioned and the enactment of the Bill does not occasion the expenditure of public funds – we get some more monies allocated to KeRRA so that the rural roads can be well improved. In this case, on the qualifications for the DGs as has been specified, it ... view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: To conclude, in any office even in primary schools, the head teachers are given five years before they are transferred to other schools because when you start a programme, in at least five years, it will be visible. The issues of roads are a bit sensitive. I want to quote my place. When I was elected in 2017, there was a road which had already been started. It is now almost five years and it has not been completed. I think that has been the case because of the change of the DGs which has actually made some of the ... view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, DG is just an abbreviation of Director-General. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: The regional managers manage the counties. view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am not the Chair, but I have instructions to move on his behalf. I beg to move: THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Select Committee on Members’ Services and Facilities on establishment of a Parliamentary Health Services Unit, laid on the Table of the House on Wednesday, 11th August 2021. Article 127 of the Constitution of Kenya obligates the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) to provide services and facilities as are necessary for the efficient and effective functioning of a Parliament. Article 127(6)(a) of the Constitution of Kenya 2010, bestows upon the ... view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: To realise Vision 2030 which is premised on three pillars, namely, economic, social and political, the Government of Kenya is more committed to shifting the bias of national health approaches from curative to preventive health to improve the quality of life of all Kenyans. Similarly, the Parliamentary Service Commission Strategic Plan 2019-2030 aligned its vision to 2030 and the subsequent Big Four Agenda. Notably, some of the strategic objectives support the wellness of Members and staff of Parliament. More so, the plan envisions to create an enabling environment to facilitate Members of Parliament to effectively and efficiently discharge their constitutional ... view
• 25 Nov 2021 in National Assembly: that deals with the physical wellbeing of Members. For effective resumption of the health club services, the proposed renovation and refurbishment by the management should be completed. Regarding health club staffers such as masseuses and reflexologists, the Committee notes preference of Members for youthful staffers. In the Committee’s observation, Members are generally reluctant to patronise outsourced health clubs. The budget for outsourcing should, therefore, be rechanneled to set up the health and wellness unit. For seamless protection of Members at the health and wellness unit and other parts of the Parliamentary Square, the Committee lauds the efficient services offered by ... view
