• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wanted to know the criteria used to allocate resources to health facilities in Western Province because, if the Ministry identifies needy areas of the province 2598 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES August 3, 2006 from Nairobi, it may identify health centres and dispensaries in one area and leave the others. Why is the Ministry not relying on the District Development Committees? How is the Ministry supervising the application of the money it has given to dispensaries/health centres? I am told that there is a health centre which has received Kshs160,000 instead of Kshs240,000. How is the Ministry headquarters supervising ... view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on the list I have, there is a health centre called Hasoko, which has been allocated money, yet it does not have enough staff. When will the Assistant Minister send a clinical officer to Hasoko? view
• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you have heard the Assistant Minister say that whenever the FBI agents come to work here, they collaborate with the police in Kenya. Under what law do foreigners come here to work in collaboration with the Kenyan Police? Is it the same way Artur Margaryan worked? August 2, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2553 view
• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you heard the Assistant Minister say that the Government is employing 600 workers and the development partners are the ones employing more than 3,000. Given the fact that there is HIV/AIDS, does this Government care for its own citizens? Why should they allow a foreigner to employ more medical personnel than the Government is employing? Does it care? view

• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this good and noble Motion. Kenya is on record that it is providing free primary education. The reason why the Government decided to offer free primary education to Kenyan children is that they knew that most Kenyans are poor and, therefore, many children do not go to school, but just sit at home. It is true that with the introduction of free primary education, if you go round the country, you will find so many children in school. These children used to be at home ... view
• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am appealing to the Members of Parliament. We were elected to Parliament by the ordinary wananchi, so that we look after their welfare. That is why I am talking with emotions. This Motion has come at the right time, because the Minister for Finance has lost the feelings for this country. He does not care for education of our August 2, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2543 children in this country. I am speaking loudly and clearly, so that he can hear wherever he is hiding. He should know that Kenyans want him to release money ... view
• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is true that the hon. Member is emotional but when he declares that, one day, there will be a revolution, do you not think that, that is a dangerous statement? He should withdraw and apologise. view
• 2 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Will I be in order to call upon the Mover of this Motion to reply? Given the fact that this Motion is very important and this House is going on recess, we should conclude it, so that when we come back, the Minister will have done something. view
• 1 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you know very well that when the BOG's term expires, the school lacks management. Why is it that many BOG's terms have expired and it takes one or two years to appoint a new one? How do schools run without BOGs? The law is very clear that once the Board's term has expired there is no official management of that school. Why does it take so long to sign those letters to appoint new BOGs? view
