11 Nov 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, unless we are talking about two parcels of land which are in different places, the one I am referring to belonged to the Veterinary Animal Research Department and was carved out and given out in 1996. If there were people living there, then it was indicated that the land was registered in the name of the Veterinary Research Institute and not under the name of those other people.

11 Nov 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have heard my brother admitting that he was not referring to me. However, he is insinuating that it is one of us. He is out of order! He should name the person he is referring to and stop going round in circles. He should name the person, so that I will be in a better position to answer the Question.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The current directors of Embakasi Ranching Company and Buru Buru Farmers Company Limited were elected on 26th May, 2006 until 1st January, 2002 respectively. As regards Ngindu Farmers Company and Githunguri Farmers Company, we do not appear to have records of their registration. (b) The Attorney-General accepted the recommendations of the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC) that the eight directors of Embakasi Ranching Company Limited be charged with the offence of failing to hold an annual general meeting for the period 2002, 2003 and 2004 contrary to Section 131(1) and 131(5) of ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish I was an advocate in the private sector, then I would give an appropriate legal advice on payment of deposits against my fees! But as the Attorney-General, the members have a number of options open to them. The Companies Act does not envisage the Registrar of Companies to intervene all the time in the affairs of the companies because companies are by nature private. The Companies Act gives powers to the shareholders to take appropriate action and use their initiative to ask the Registrar of Companies to take some action. One of the actions ...

29 Oct 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I draw the attention of the hon. Member of Parliament, who is not yet entitled to use the words: "Senior counsel" but a senior advocate from the United Kingdom--- I draw his attention to Section 131(2) of the Companies Act.

16 Oct 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The Government did not compulsorily acquire any land for construction of Manooni Dam in the early 1980s. (b) Since the Government was not involved in the compulsory acquisition of the said land, the question of compensation does not arise. The issue of resettling families cannot be considered in the context of the alleged acquisition.

16 Oct 2008 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am saying that our Ministry was not involved in the acquisition of the land to pave way for the construction of the dam. When I say that our Ministry was not involved, that means that there was no Gazette Notice that our Ministry or the Commissioner of Lands issued to that effect! That is why I am saying that we were not involved. It might have been a local arrangement in the area, maybe!
