Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, this is a Report by our Chair. Hon. Kivasu will read, then I second.

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 259D (2) (b) , I rise to extend hearty congratulations to our athletes for their exemplary performance in the Deaflympic Games that were held in Tokyo, Japan from 16th to 25th November 2025....

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I am being confused by Hon. Kiarie. He is mentioning Umi Bashir, who is a Principal Secretary in the State Department for Culture, The Arts and Heritage. This is Hon. Umi Harun.

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I request that CA be summoned to the plenary. This is because the situation in Busia is the same as what I am hearing about northern Kenya. Busia County is also among the underserved. I have not seen anything happening...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand guided.

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I also rise to send my condolences to the people of Isiolo South Constituency and Kenya as a whole. We have lost a very good leader. I remember, in the Azimio Coalition, where he used to be firm in...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) I rise under Standing Order 35 to object to any business in the House because there is no quorum.

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. The current way of doing licensing, the bureaucracies involved, and the stages one has to go through, all scare away investors, both domestic and international. This law will help us ease the way of...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, our issue in Busia County is different because we are a border town, and the security issues are just too much. We cannot handle them. We need chiefs and assistant chiefs to be motivated or supported so that their work is...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Service delivery to any Kenyan is a right; we do not request it. I ask the Hon. Chairman and the Ministry to commit to prioritising Busia sub-county in the next Supplementary Budget. This is because we want service delivery...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I would also like to add that every road must be constructed to a high standard. Some roads are merely repaired by filling them with dust or soil and scratching the surface. When the rains come, these repairs are...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support this Bill fully. First of all, public participation must be done because it involves public property. Anything that is owned by the public must be extensively and intensively looked into and supported fully by the public. Herein,...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) These controversial land issues should be concluded very fast. I am waiting to contribute on the Special Funds.

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am a member of the Special Funds Account Committee. We were very mesmerised by the analysis of how the Fund has tried to network and get partners and donors from abroad. This Fund does not depend on the...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is what my nervous system would identify as walking on glass. By the time public land is transferred to an individual, chiefs, assistant chiefs, village elders and the community are aware that it is public land. By the...

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Yes, I am waiting for the Motion by the Special Funds Accounts Committee. (Hon. Mary Emaase raised her hand)

Hon. Catherine Omanyo (Busia County, ODM) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this Motion on AGOA by Hon. Jane Kagiri. Most African countries will suffer if this Agreement ceases. Kenya is one of the countries that desires an extension so that we do not lose the progress...
