• 25 May 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the appointment of the EALA Members reminds me of an issue of operation by democratization where the minorities are always view

• 25 May 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me hit on it straight away. I have listened carefully to the suggestions by the Senate Majority Leader and the opposition by Sen. M. Kajwang. It is all hinged on Section 6(1) of the rules of appointment of these Members in this Parliament. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if it were so, and we start with the suggestion of the recommendations in the report by the Majority Leader, then we should not even accept this report in total plus the membership therein. It means that the report should go back to be done afresh with different membership. If ... view

• 6 Apr 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The order to shoot and kill stills stands because it has not been retracted. It was announced by a person with the title “President.” It could be a decree and we do not know under which law but all the same it was an executive order. Therefore, no litigation, complaint or even reason is supposed to be given before that order. Here we are being told by the Vice Chair that no answer is available. Would I therefore be in order to demand that the Chair, using all means, gives us ... view
• 6 Apr 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Would I be in order to seek guidance on two issues? First, is the Deputy President protected under Standing Order No.90 of our Standing Orders on the need of a substantive Motion to discuss his conduct? Secondly, if not so, would I therefore be in order to demand that although we may proceed on recess, a specific date is picked for a Kamukunji of the whole Senate to be addressed by the Minister in charge of internal security and the Deputy President over this matter? view
• 6 Apr 2017 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. We moved back to the orders that had been read, courtesy of Sen. Murkomen coming to the House late. Would it not have been appropriate and respectable to this House that Sen. Murkomen apologizes for coming to the House late? He could have done so before tabling the Papers and giving a Notice of Motion. view
• 6 Apr 2017 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the Vice Chairperson clarify that indeed an initial route for the construction of the LAPSSET corridor had been designed? If so, the population around that route had stopped any plans they had on investment of those areas. Could she, therefore, confirm that the time wasted for the people before the change of the design will be considered and paid for in full? view
• 4 Apr 2017 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the advent of the current Constitution and devolution of medical services to the counties has created a crisis that needs to be looked into very carefully by the Senate, especially when it involves the provision of medical services regarding the boundaries of the counties. In most cases, Level 5 hospitals cater for counties other than the county where the hospital is located. However, financial officers never take that into consideration. Therefore, one county ends up losing the money allocated to it. The situation of the MTRH is quite unique because it also caters for the whole ... view
