• 15 Jul 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to report progress that a Committee of the Whole is considering The Tobacco Control Regulations, 2014 and has instructed me to report progress and seek leave to sit again another day. view
• 9 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not happy with the answer given by the Vice Chair despite the appreciation shown by the other two Senators. If you look at the efforts being made to stabilize power in Murang’a, we have about four sub-stations being built at the same time while in Kisii, Migori and Homa Bay, there is only one being built. Therefore, we are not seeing any alleviation to the already existing problem. The question is; is it a calculated effort by the Jubilee Government to marginalize the so- called non-supportive counties in politics so that they do not get ... view
• 9 Jul 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am in the Committee on Health. The Vice Chair has given adequate reasons why the answer has not been given to this House. I want to communicate to the House that the reason the Ministry could not give us the answer is because they are busy signing performance contracts. It is very disturbing that the Committee has to be given such a reason for getting a reply to a medical emergency in this country. I wanted that to come to the notice of this House. view
• 9 Jul 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Chairperson still convinced that South Africa is a friendly country? If so, what reasons does the Chairperson have to be convinced as so? view
• 9 Jul 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am actually not surprised that you also noticed that there was open endedness in the reply from the Vice Chairperson with her reconciliatory approach to the whole thing. This may be because it is Ramadhan season and she may not want to speak badly. Would I be in order to request that this House calls the Cabinet Secretary for Foreign Affairs and International Trade to appear before the House to answer some of these questions in detail? view
• 8 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is, indeed, a great shame to this Government because of its ineptitude and unconcerned sort of view that it has on the newly constructed roads. Most of the newly constructed roads have potholes that have not been given attention at all. This road was completed in 2011, therefore, it is only four years old. It is a pity that it is totally in a deplorable condition. How many years’ lifespan was the road designed for? Secondly, did the contractor have any grace period of maintenance on this road? view
• 8 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, one of the reasons I opposed the then Constitution draft in the Tenth Parliament was because of the absence of an annex of the true map of Kenya showing boundaries and beacons as put forward by Sen. Wetangula. Is the Government ready to join Okoa Kenya and make that amendment in the Constitution? Is it true, as declared by President Museveni, that Kenya owns Migingo Island and Uganda owns the water? view
• 8 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to report that the Committee of the Whole has considered the National Government Coordination (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No.30 of 2014) and its approval thereof without amendments. view
• 8 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to report that the Committee of the Whole has considered The National Drought Management Authority Bill (National Assembly Bill No.42 of 2013) and its approval thereof with amendments. view
• 8 Jul 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to report that the Committee of the Whole has considered The Parliamentary Service (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No.21 of 2014) and its approval thereof with amendments. view
