• 4 Aug 2021 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support, but probably at the Committee of the whole House, there will be some immediate amendments, so that we can align to the realities of the modern life and the challenges of the medical cover in this country. With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 8 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I want to appeal to my colleagues that if we do not carry this amendment, we will retain the one that is in the published Bill which is so fake and imprecise since anybody from anywhere will rise and claim to be a dependant or wife. Cohabitation is known and accepted in the Marriage Act. We are simply carrying that into this law of succession. So, let us consider the three years that have been proposed which is reasonable time and couples court often all over this country. Let us not hide and pretend that we ... view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No. 44(2) (c), I wish to request for a statement from the Chairperson, Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning on the legal and operational status of an amenity referred to as the Kenya Transport and Logistics Network (KTLN). Sometimes in November 2020, an entity referred to as Kenya Transport and Logistics Network (KTLN) was created to enhance the efficiency and coordination in the transport sector through fortifying public private dialogue and leveraging the efficiencies and synergies of the relevant state agencies. The state agencies placed under KTLN were: Kenya Railways Corporation, Kenya Pipeline ... view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Department for Infrastructure. This was done without the programme targets and key performance indicators which should allow efficient oversight. It is worthwhile noting that the state agencies operate under different pieces of legislation with each having different organisational structure and corporate culture. It is against this background that I seek a statement from the Chairperson, Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning on the following. (i) What is the legal status of the establishment of Kenya Transport and Logistics Network (KTLN)? (ii) What is the organisational structure of this new entity viz-a-vis the existing structure for Kenya Railways Corporation, Kenya ... view

• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: Oundo (Funyula, ODM): Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity to contribute to the County Governments (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No.13 of 2018). 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
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: The Bill intends to amend Section 58 of the County Governments Act specifically to redefine the qualifications of the secretary and the chairperson to the board. There are obvious salient issues. Section 58(1)(c) of the County Government Act states: “The County Public Service Board shall comprise a certified public secretary of good professional standing nominated and appointed by the governor, with the approval of the county assembly, who shall be the secretary to the board.” The amendment proposed by this Bill is to remove that particular qualification. In my understanding, the county public service board undertakes recruitment, promotion, disciplinary and ... view
• 7 Jul 2021 in National Assembly: It is imperative that both the chair and the vice-chair have the same qualifications so that the vice-chair is able to undertake the functions of the chair. For example, the President and the Deputy President have the same minimum academic qualifications, so that in the event the President is not available, we do not have a constitutional crisis because the Deputy President cannot occupy the position for lack of academic qualifications. Obviously, then, we might end up literally deleting many provisions, which will have rendered this work a nullity. Nevertheless, most of what is proposed here does not add any ... view
• 30 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I seek your indulgence. When the direction was given, I was not in the House. I assumed it is the normal procedure where you press… view
• 30 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: We will deal with it in the Committee of the whole House. view
