5 Nov 2013 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, on Tuesday we summoned the Minister and we had very fruitful discussions and the Ministry should give us a Statement soon in view of the fact that the office is overwhelmed with requests for Statements both from here and from the National Assembly. I think it would be fair to give them more time so that they can respond adequately. Even now, I have four Statements to issue.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think that the Clerks of the Committees should be giving extra copies to the Members, because it is not the Committee which prepares the Statements.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. What hon. Billow has said, that there have been two other attacks, is quite unfortunate. However, with the increase in the number of police officers and the 7,000 police officers who are undergoing training, once the training is over, there will be nothing to stop us from posting them there. With regard to the issue of homeguards, I know that many of these have been trained, not only in Mandera but also in Wajir and Garissa. However, up to now, they have not been armed. I will pursue this matter with the Minister and see ...

5 Nov 2013 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I summoned the Cabinet Secretary on Tuesday and we agreed as a Committee – I do not want to accuse anybody – but both Members did not turn up to enable us to interrogate him.

5 Nov 2013 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, what I normally do in my Committee is to serve the whole HANSARD to the Cabinet Secretary so that he can go through and be able to react accordingly. So, the question of employing retired people from Nyeri to be deployed to Garissa, I think it is up to him to look into it. INSECURITY AT MALALANI IN KITUI COUNTY On 8th October, 2013, a Statement on Insecurity at Malalani in Kitui Constituency was issued in this House. However, it was directed that a more comprehensive report on the measures that had been put in place to ...
