Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second the Procedural Motion for extension of time for consideration of those two sets of Regulations. This is because we have just come from a long recess and the time between tabling and the consideration, kind of lapsed when we were on recess....

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity to also support this Motion by the Member for Mwala. The importance of a healthy environment cannot be over emphasised because it is a worldwide problem and it is a conversation that is being discussed all over the world. It is actually...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to the Motion on the State of the Nation address delivered by His Excellency the President. First, I note that there are specific areas which the President is obliged to address. He is supposed to report on...

On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Before we go to the Committee of the whole House, I want to raise a concern as a Member of the House Business Committee. The Order Paper is quite loaded today. We have a Supplementary Order Paper...

Hon. Temporary Chairman, I am looking at the qualifications that have been proposed here, which include demonstrable expertise and experience in finance, accounting, auditing, risk management, economics, law, engineering or corporate governance. Yet your own profession, Chair, has been over-looked: Those who teach all those people how to do all...

On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. CONSIDERATION OF REPORT ON THE PROVISIONAL COLLECTION OF TAXES AND DUTIES (REPEAL) BILL On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

You cannot run the House like a market! On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker!

I rise under Standing Order 35. On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker! (Loud consultations)

Give me the mic!

It is not the first time! (Loud consultations)

You are the one who is disorderly!

There is no quorum! You are putting questions when there is no quorum. This is becoming a joke!

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. You know, one of the pillars of business is basically customer service, and I think one of the problems that KQ has is customer service. For the customer service, we need to interrogate how they train their workers. Hon. Speaker, the Parliamentary Service Commission is actually...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Before we move on, because we are on Questions and Statements, there is a response to a request for a Statement we are expecting today as Members of this House. About a week ago, an hon. Member raised the question on the issue of Kenya Rural...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is a straightforward matter. It is logical and makes a lot of sense to enable people with different shareholdings to trade in the stock market. However, I cannot support any law that gives the Cabinet Secretary authority to exempt certain organisations or companies over others....

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. I support the Report of the Committee on Energy regarding the Inquiry into the matter of reducing electricity costs in the country. We cannot achieve economic development in a nation without adequate and affordable electricity. The Committee is responding to a plea...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to oppose Hon. Kaluma’s proposal. Members here have complained that it takes a long time for our Bills to pass. This Bill has already gone through Second Reading, Members debated, it has gone to Committee of the whole House, Members sat and made serious...

Thank you for this opportunity. I also rise to support the Motion by the Committee on Regional Integration on its consideration of the amendment to Article 24 (2) (a) of the Protocol on the Establishment of the East African Community Customs Union. Ideally, the purpose behind the integration is to...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity to also contribute to this very important Motion. I want to confirm that I am normally very suspicious of the Bills presented by this regime. Having listened to the mover and the seconder, they have said very wonderful and logical things, but...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. No. It is on another statement, Hon. Temporary Speaker, if you are done with that one.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to seek your direction and indulgence. A statement was requested, and yesterday, the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure informed the House that the circular indicating a reduction in the allocation of 22 and 10 per cent for constituency roads...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. First and foremost, I am very happy with the Committee on Delegated Legislation for the job well done. This issue originated from a circular issued by the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) , which indicated that every Government or state organ must procure goods and...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I take this opportunity to also pay tribute to the late Rt Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, Kenya's biggest defender of human rights and the rule of law. I got the news of Baba's passing on when I was in London with my Party Leader. We had...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to second this Motion. When dealing with regulations, there are several considerations that the Committee on Delegated Legislation must make. First, we ensure that the regulations are constitutionally sound by checking them against the Constitution of Kenya, 2010. We also ensure that they...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Parliament is under attack. If you go to social media, read newspapers and watch television, it is this House that is continuously under attack. That has gone to the level of funds that go to the people that we represent, specifically NG-CDF, Road Maintenance Levy Fund...

No.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Bill. This Fund has always existed and has always been shared out, but amongst three institutions. What has changed in this Bill is the Tourism Promotion Fund. When air passengers pay, one of the critical areas...

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I beg to move that the Committee do report to the House its consideration of the Election Offences (Amendment) (No.2) Bill (Senate Bill No.28 of 2024) and its approval thereof with amendments. (Question put and agreed to) (The House resumed) IN THE HOUSE [The Temporary Speaker (Hon....

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I beg to move that the House do agree with the Committee in the said report and request Hon. Kimani to second.

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I beg to move that the Election Offences (Amendment) (No.2) Bill (Senate Bill No.28 of 2024) be now read a Third Time and request the Leader of the Majority Party, Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah, to second.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to second the Motion on the Affordable Housing Regulations 2025. First and foremost, I am a Member of the Committee of Delegated Legislation. This Committee is guided by the Statutory Instruments Act, which is very clear about what exactly has to be done...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker I would not want to have a back and forth.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. On behalf of the Members, thank you for this opportunity to welcome all those institutions that have come to the House of Parliament. Many times, I hear Members telling students to work hard and become Members of Parliament. I would like to go against that...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The issue raised by the Hon. Leader of the Minority Party is important. Since 2010 or 2013, when the new bicameral system began, we have witnessed numerous court cases. There appears to be an attempt to belittle the House of the National Assembly by the Senate....

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I do sympathise, of course, with the rights of people being trampled on and the property being destroyed. I would like to ask the Cabinet Secretary - because he has been on record on those matters - how he will deal with police officers that would...

Hon. Speaker, on the answer to the issue of police training, the Cabinet Secretary has tried to explain that the curriculum promotes both the punitive and adversarial approach towards the public and also a rehabilitative and correctional approach. I beg to differ. I think the only approach that should be...

Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration the following question: Could the Cabinet Secretary ―

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My question was on drugs and substance abuse. The Cabinet Secretary has mentioned an issue that has raised another question. He kept mentioning muguka and khat. Is muguka or khat a drug or a cash crop as defined in law? The answers given are very good,...
