• 14 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am not because I have clearly said that we agreed that the document should be adopted by this House.

• 14 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Member of Parliament is quoting the wrong figures. The figures in the Vision 2030 is 10 per cent. We are not on 2 per cent. We are on 5.6 per cent at the moment. view
• 14 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, it was not a requirement that I table those particular documents here. The Member of Parliament had not asked for them. However, since he has asked for them, I will table them early next year when we come back from recess. view
• 12 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have no problem with releasing the list to the hon. Member. It is a very detailed list and he can use it to check if there is any elder who has not been paid or has different details. I am willing to pay. view
• 12 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the hon. Member, in fact, wrote a letter to me about those elders who were not paid in those areas that he has mentioned. I have replied to that letter indicating the elders who gave their details and were paid. The problem we had - and it is clearly shown on the list that I have tabled – is that there are elders who gave different names from the names that appear in the ID cards. Some of them genuinely worked, but they could not produce IDs. So, it became a problem to pay such officials. ... view
• 12 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have identified areas that had problems. If I can just point out from the list that I have shown my friend here--- On this list, there appears John Langat five times. But that John Langat has different ID number and you can verify that. In such a case, how do we pay? Whom do we pay? Do we pay John Langat five times? So, these are some of the problems that we have encountered. view

• 8 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I want to thank the parliamentary Committee on CDF for approving the names. They have approved the 10 out of the 12 names that I submitted. I have had challenges when I request names from institutions. From one institution, I got four letters giving me different names. There are other institutions where I got two letters each submitting different names. I want the Clerk to look at the two letters. view
• 8 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: With regard to the two names that have been rejected, I will move with speed to see that we have a replacement. I am hopeful that in two weeks time, we will have the two names approved by the Committee. I will move with speed to gazette the names that have been approved by the House so that the new Board receives project proposals which I will expect Members of Parliament to submit as soon as possible. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I will also expect the new Board to start the process of recruiting the new Chief Executive Officer. As ... view
• 8 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Kshs10.6 billion is supposed to have been released by now. Unfortunately, we have not received any cent. However, we are hopeful that with the establishment of the Board, we will get that particular money. I will request the hon. Members as they go on recess, they move with speed to ensure that we have project proposals, so that as we get this money, we will be able to release it to the constituencies. There is a balance of Kshs3.6 billion which I have not included in the allocation. The reason is that I have been advised ... view
