Martin Peters Owino

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) I heard her clearly. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Much has been said about this Bill and I just want to add my voice to it. Disaster Management is a process. It starts with prevention. I emphasise that we need to focus more on prevention...

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Hon. Chepkong’a, we want this to be good, but this is very dangerous. For example, if a court is satisfied, where is the mechanism that will tell us that between these two Houses…? Sometimes, these things are driven by interests. Delays can also be there....

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I appreciate for the opportunity. I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Youth Affairs, Creative Economy and Sports the following Question:

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Hon. Speaker, just a quick supplementary. The CS has talked about a master plan and I was hoping that he could pinpoint when we will have the beneficiaries. He has just said within the framework and that is a bit discouraging. We also do not...

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I appreciate you for giving me this opportunity. At the outset, I support this Bill and say kudos to my Chair, Hon. Yussuf. The Chairman and the whole team have been very passionate at looking into issues of disabilities. In the 2019...

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to support this Report. There are some idioms that teach us. For example, debt is slavery to those who are free. If those who are free are grossly indebted, they become slaves of the lender as is in...

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I appreciate the acknowledgement and merit that Ndhiwa deserves this. But as he said earlier, prevention is equally important. Even if the resources are scarce and we all acknowledge that, Cabinet Secretary, I would also ask when it will be gazetted....

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Question 203/2023 SUB-DIVISION OF NDHIWA CONSTITUENCY INTO THREE ADMINISTRATIVE UNITS Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration the following Question. Considering that the 2019 Kenya Housing and Population Census...

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) If Hon. T.J. and the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs could not get that, this is highly technical. You cannot have anyone without a basic degree in pharmacy doing this. I, therefore, support. The Temporary Chairlady (Hon. Martha Wangari) : Hon. (Dr) Gogo.

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) I think we are missing the point here. The current Pharmacy and Poisons Board (PPB) does not regulate traditional medicine. If we want to regulate traditional medicine, let us think of another Bill. It is not in this one. The Temporary Chairlady (Hon. Martha Wangari)...

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I also rise to support this. The Authority is not going to work in silos; it is going to follow the global practice. Clause (b) (aa) is important because it talks of adapting and implementing good and internationally recognised regulatory practices. 24th...

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Hon. Temporary Chairlady, when you have resigned, you are not a Member of Parliament. That is out of question. I wanted you to give us guidance. With all these amendments coming from the Floor all the time, we will not finish this. If they were...

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) The reason I am supporting this is for the headquarters to remain in Nairobi. Only branches can be established elsewhere, as stated in the amendment. The Temporary Chairlady (Hon. Martha Wangari) : Hon. Pukose, kindly summarise this matter.

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am a very happy man today because I have been fighting for this proposed law since I joined the healthcare delivery system.

Hon. Martin Owino (Ndhiwa, ODM) I have been fighting for it internationally and nationally. It is very interesting. We started working in 1980s and these things were working very well in the Ministry of Health. The same thing which was working well was changed, and now we are going back...
