• 6 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stated that these Bills are being developed by various line Ministries and when we talk of a specific date, that is why we talk of this month of June. We hope in the process of this month, these Bills will be published. But when you talk of specific dates---- view
• 6 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, before I confirm that, the first deferment of this Question was because we were not ready. The second one was because I had a problem in my constituency on security matters. Last week, I was here to answer the Question but my friend, Dr. Nuh, was not available. So, it is wrong to say that the three deferments were because we were not ready. Let me confirm that we will liaise with the Ministries and give a definite date on Tuesday next week. view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: (a) Yes, I am aware that the contracts of 63 employees of the former Kenya Anti- Corruption Commission expired on 30th April, 2012. view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: (b)Yes, I am also aware that we retained these officers in the office. Their contracts have been renewed by the Public Service Commission (PSC) for a period of one year to ensure that the Commission does not lose its institutional memory pending the appointment of the commissioners who will vet and hire new staff or retain them after vetting. view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: (c) Having received communication from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) indicating the contracts of 63 employees said were to expire, my Ministry undertook appropriate consultations with the relevant Government department with a view to addressing the matter. After due consultations, the PSC renewed the contracts of the said employees for 12 months pending the assumption of office of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Board which would be expected to vet these employees as required by Section 34(3) of the Ethics And Anti-Corruption Act, 2011. view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the provisions of the Ethics and Anti- Corruption Commission Act requires that the board do vet the staff of the Commission. Therefore, once we have the board in place, it would then be able to receive applications from those members of staff and vet them. If they will be found to be fit to serve in the Commission, then they will serve as per the provisions of the Act. view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the PSC invoked the provisions of Section 234 of the Constitution in appointing those officers. view
• 29 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, at this point, I cannot confirm whether they were paid their dues and how much it was. All I know is that they are still serving in the Commission. I could confirm that to my colleague because I just need to inquire form the Commission. However, I cannot now specifically state whether they were paid their dues. I believe that since they were serving under contract, their dues were paid, but I cannot confirm the amount right now. view
