• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. This House serves the Republic of Kenya and many issues will be brought to this House that pertains to the Office of the DPP. I want to seek the indulgence of the Chair on how, in the future, this House will be able to interrogate matters that are before the DPP so that we avoid a situation in future where the Attorney-General tells the House that the people of Kenya decided to have an independent office of the DPP. In future, the House should be able to know from a ruling, maybe from ... view
• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Labour:- (a) whether he is aware that M/s. Kenya Tanning Extract Company Limited terminated the services of 21 workers with effect from 31st December 2008 but had declined to pay them gratuity, redundancy or other dues; (b) when the former employees will be paid their dues; and, (c) what measures the Ministry will take to ensure that in the event of closure of the company, the former employees are paid all their dues. view
• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Question was on the Order Paper on Tuesday last week. The Minister requested the Chair to allow this matter to be put on the Order Paper today. I have another Question by Private Notice which could not come today because of this Question. So, it would be wrong for a Minister to state a particular day to come and answer a Question then not even appear in the House. I know that the office has a Minister and an Assistant Minister. I have an answer here and under collective responsibility, I demand--- If you ... view
• 24 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would prefer the Question by Private Notice to come on Tuesday and you probably give me this Question on Wednesday. This is because the other Question affects the lives of Kenyans. However, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is important for punishment to be meted on this Minister. When Members do not appear in the House, you drop their Questions. Equal punishment should be given to a Minister who does not appear because it is disorderly on the part of the Minister. view
• 23 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Is the Minister aware that occupants are constructing permanent structures on Twiga Farm within Ruiru Municipality without title deeds or approvals from the Ruiru Municipal Council? (b) What measures is the Ministry taking to ensure that the matter is dealt with and Kenyans do not lose money as recently witnessed in Syokimau Estate? view
• 23 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, nothing can be more serious. The Assistant Minister is telling the Republic of Kenya that he is aware of illegal construction going on. These are permanent houses like those in Syokimau and Kenyans are being duped to buy share certificates through which they build permanent houses. The Assistant Minister comfortably says that they are unable to go in there because there are barriers erected by criminals and so we allow Kenyans to be duped and build permanent homes only for them to be demolished. When will they stop these illegal constructions? This is not an ... view
• 23 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, yes, indeed. But there is something that I will request the Chair to allow to be done before we go on recess; as you can see, what is happening in the country is that Kenyans are buying land that is not available for sale and building permanent houses; the Minister or the Ministry of Local Government looks the other side, yet they are involved in this scam. So, may I request you that this Question be in the Order Paper on Thursday so that we deal with it next week? In the meantime on Friday ... view
• 23 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 23 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, a while ago, I demanded information from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) through the Attorney- General, and he said that the DPP is now a new office. view
