Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) On a point of order.

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Deputy Speaker, I was rising on a point of order on the question of relevance. Hon Sankok, as much as he is representing PLWD’s, has completely moved out of the subject of debate this morning. I was actually flipping through the Report to see...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the appointment of the nominee, Dr. Margaret Nyakang’o. As Members made their contributions, there was somebody who spoke loudly about the issue of relevance. Hon. Chonga is obligated to first read the Report that is before...

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I beg to move: THAT, the First Schedule be amended as follows— VOTE 1092: STATE DEPARTMENT FOR TRANSPORT Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, the First Schedule be amended as follows—...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Chairman, it is rightly said. I want to confirm what the Leader of the Majority Party is asking. Indeed, they are within votes. Two, with regard to what Hon. Nyikal is asking, indeed, all the amendments except the one by Hon. Keynan, which...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I am laughing because the Leader of the Majority Party is trying to insinuate that both His Excellency the President and I, by virtue of coming from the same county, have a very high propensity to make errors and...

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, we have sorted out with the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party. I was going to ask him who his maths teacher was because the figures are very clear. The figure Kshs. 1,721,285,046 be deleted and substituted thereof with the figure...

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, on record, it is a figure of Kshs 15 million. I know where the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party comes from. Million and billion are the same. The Temporary Deputy Chairman (Hon. Christopher Omulele) : Chair, please, do not go...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman as I said, the Parliamentary Budget Office and Members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee are serious professionals with people like Dr. Makali Mulu, Dr. Mutunga and, of course, myself yours faithfully. The errors were captured by the National Treasury as...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, it is rather embarrassing that a second time MP and a Chair of a Committee can stand before the House to speak about errors that do not exist. What we are considering is the Supplementary Appropriations Bill No.1 of 2019. The...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, the proposed allocation in respect of the total Supply under the subclass Total Development in the First Schedule of Kshs62,682,861,275 be deleted and substituted thereof with the figure Kshs62,957,861,275; THAT, the proposed allocation in respect of...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this relates to the issue the Leader of the Majority Party was raising on public participation. The Budget and Appropriations Committee goes to the counties. What Hon. Makali...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, put the Question. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. Patrick Mariru) : Mover. Hon. Ichung’wah, we Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is the Leader of the Majority Party who is saying that you put the Question. Hon....

I request Hon. Aden Duale, Member for Garissa Township to second. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. Patrick Mariru) :...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this is a House of records. This is the second time Hon. Duale is saying that myself and His Excellency the President are prone to errors. He must recognise that I do not work in the national Treasury. The errors we...

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, I seek your indulgence before we move to the next Order on Statements.

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) We had made consultations on it. APPROVAL TO STOP TRANSFER OF FUNDS TO 15 COUNTIES DUE TO NON-SETTLEMENT OF PENDING BILLS Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, on 27th November 2019, you referred the Message from the national Treasury on the request to stop...

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) What is out of order?

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, of course, I am obliged with your guidance. The only problem is that just like when the Member for Igembe North and Chair of National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) was speaking on the provisions of the Act, many of us were not...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, I beg to second. (Hon. (Ms.) Catherine Waruguru stood up in her place)

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, I beg to move that the Supplementary Appropriation (No.2) Bill (National Bill No. 81 of 2019) be now read a Second Time.

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, with your indulgence, I wanted to comment on the Message that you just delivered and, indeed, appreciate the gesture by His Excellency the President to invite Members of Parliament for the launch of the BBI Report. I was astounded the other day when...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, I was only noting my concern that there were Government officers who claimed that they could not access parts of that county where even the media were able to access. Therefore, I support that statement and, indeed, it must come. It is also...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As you have said, we have our Standing Orders that we read, but we do not seem to interpret and understand what they provide. What we are debating is a Report by a Committee of the House. The House has every...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Health the following Question.

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, we seem to be doing very well with digitisation and working in a paperless Parliament, but the gadgets that we have in front of us today seem not to be working. We cannot access the Order Paper.

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, do I assume that there is a deliberate sabotage on this particular row? Mine, Hon. Caleb Kositany’s, and the next one, are not working.

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker. I rise on a point of order regarding the Next Order. There is an amendment proposed by Hon. Antony Tom Oluoch on Clause 30 of the Bill. In my view, the amendment touches on elements to do with a money Bill. As the...

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, the proposed amendment by Hon. Tom. Oluoch on Clause 30 of the Public Finance Management (Amendment) Bill of 2017 has elements of a money Bill. As a Committee, we have not had an opportunity to interrogate that particular amendment.

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. To begin with, I am aware that there is an issue on what Hon. Peter Kaluma has raised on the Judiciary Budget which we committed that we will respond to. Unfortunately, the matter seems to have been overtaken November 14, 2019...

Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah (Kikuyu, JP) Hon. Speaker, just a clarification of what Hon. Abdullswamad is asking, let me emphasise that it is Chairs of Departmental Committees, not Chairs of Select Committees like PIC and PAC.

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The Leader of the Majority Party has just tabled the Supplementary Estimates for the 2019/2020 Financial Year. From the information already available, it is noted that these Estimates are likely to have a very huge impact on the approved budget for...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I was just noting that the time that we have between now and when we go on recess on 5th December, 2019 is too limited for us to process these Estimates. As I had indicated earlier, from what the Leader of...

Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to seek your leave. November 5, 2019 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 4 Hon.
