• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have heard the Assistant Minister say that they are relying on the EIA. They issue EIA before they blow up all these quarries. I am sure, Chair, you have travelled on Thika Road. If you look at the right hand side and view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister is misleading the House by saying that “they do not do” It is not cast in stone! We are saying that these issues have an effect on the lives of Kenyans. Could the Assistant Ministry consider relooking at the matter and visit the quarries to make sure that the environment is safe for Kenyans? That is all! It is quite simple! view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister is avoiding the question that was asked to him. He was asked whether he could table the contract so that it can be interrogated to see whether they returned the field in the state that it was in before they took it over as a site office. Is he in order? view

• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is obvious that the Questioner is asking about repairing the place that was being used as a site office. The Assistant Minister is avoiding answering that part of the Question by saying that there is a hand-over note, but the note does not speak about the status of the field. view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have heard clearly the professor say that if they have finished extracting stones, they are supposed to return the land to its original state. You are aware that all those quarries are open. I am only asking for protective measures to be put in place. If it is not possible for the Assistant Minister to visit the place, could she then refer this matter to the Departmental Committee on Lands and Natural Resources for further investigations to be carried out? It seems the professor does not have the capacity to ... view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I withdraw the last bit of my statement. Could the Assistant Minister confirm that this matter can be dealt with by the departmental committee? view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would want to take the Assistant Minister to the site because she is not very well informed on the matter of quarries along Thika Road. She should give an undertaking as to when she will accompany me there. We are talking about lives of people and not of goats or cows. These are lives of Kenyans. I am prepared to go there even this afternoon. view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I had sought your approval to seek a Statement from the Government. Now that the same matter has been brought up, if it does happen that the Prime Minister will respond, I would request that he also responds specifically to the issues that the American Government is apologizing for. Under normal circumstances, one does not apologize for something he does not understand. What is it that the American Government is apologizing for? In their discussion, did the American Government tell him what they will do with the mental and social anguish ... view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise on a point of order to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Office of the Prime Minister regarding a phone call that he received or it is alleged that he received with an apology from the American Government. In the Statement, I would want the Prime Minister to state what exactly it is that the American Government is apologizing for; whether it is to the person of the Prime Minister and, if so, he is the Prime Minister of the Republic of Kenya, to state what it is that the American Government has done ... view
