Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is the response to a request for a Statement by Hon. (Dr) Irene Kasalu, regarding the unlawful detention of the body of the late Ms Priscilla Nyokabi Gaku by Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) from 30th May to date. This is the response from the...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Thank you. I realised that this is an extremely important matter, and there is a lot more behind it than just a simple question of when the body is released. I took up this matter with the Cabinet Secretary as recently as yesterday, and with the Principal Secretary (PS) ,...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. What Hon. Sabina has raised is important. We will have this Report in two weeks' time.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Gambling is a bad thing. However, we enact laws to regulate bad things. I will support it on that basis. That is why we need a law to control gambling. I support it for one main reason. That the Committee has attempted to look at...

I want to get clarification from the Mover. If Kisumu was initially there and has now been removed, what does that mean? Was it a repetition, implying that Kisumu is still there and Kitui is simply being added? Does this mean that the money for Kisumu is gone? Can we...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I rise to support this Report. I just want to make a general comment. I have observed this on many occasions. Extremely important reports are brought to this House and many times, we debate them while we are so few...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I would like to give an explanation. A chairperson elected by members of the Institute in the manner prescribed by the regulations brings some instability. If a member of an organisation is elected according to regulations that can be made or changed by the Cabinet...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chair. I need some explanation. Clause 42 (1) of the Bill says there is an existing association that will assume this work, but the amendment creates a new association. What happens to the old one? This is a matter that needs to be addressed. I do...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The objects of this Motion are to improve health services. We propose that if we require individuals holding important offices in this country to utilise public services, then these services will be improved. That is the theory about this debate. The bigger picture is that...

Thank you Hon. Speaker for giving me an opportunity to pass my condolences, on behalf of myself, the people of Seme and my family to the families of the late three former Members. As a House, we have to think about the number of deaths that we are experiencing. I...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I have one brief Question regarding the Maseno-Kombewa Road. The Cabinet Secretary answered regarding the Vihiga side. However, that road extends all the way to Kombewa-Kalandini. No. The part from Akado-Nyandiwa- Kalandini is not complete. The road is hanging. It can help us follow up on...

Emphasis has been made on important areas like the issue of zoonotic diseases. We will take those recommendations into consideration during the Committee of the whole House as we come...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I rise to support the Report of the Committee. I have related to the government for a long time in whatever I have done and I have not seen a single fund that the people have access to like the...

I will accept the information.

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I have received a lot of information. I have been educated but even if we say there is separation of powers, in my view, this is still separation, looking at how the NG-CDF is operating in my Constituency. If you look at the prevailing arrangement carefully, you...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise on Standing Order 96. This is an extremely important Motion that should be discussed to the end. In my view, with the full House when Members are fully informed, having read the Report and everything....

Thank you for this opportunity. The Bill seeks to entrench the National Government Constituencies Fund (NGCF) , the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) , and the Senate Oversight Fund (SOF) in the Constitution. Constituencies’ funds has done what other Funds have not done. The argument of those who have...

I will have an answer in two weeks after we come back from recess. Okay.

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, if the money had been left here, they would have lost it. Because in the next two days, it would be virtually impossible to have used the money. The fact that the money has now been moved to the next financial year, we have saved it for...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I will be very brief as I support this very important Motion. We have not had such a report for a long time. The Report is part of the Budget because it indicates which debts we are paying. The Report indicates that the information should be published...

Thank you. This is an urgent matter because I understand that the body is still detained. We are going to work on the issue immediately. A report will come within one week after we resume from recess. However, action definitely needs to be taken even before recess is over because...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I rise to support the report and the proposed formula. It is an improvement on the previous one. I also appreciate the effort that has gone into developing it. However, it has limitations. It is based on only three things:...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this Bill and give a bit of caution. Today, we talk of E-commerce, digital currency, virtual assets, and we are already doing virtual money transfers. We are setting up digital hubs in our constituencies to enable our young people to earn...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Report of the Committee. What we used to know as NGOs are now called Public Service Organisations (PSOs) . They are an important part of a democratic society. They offer charity in service delivery. They are often the ones who...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support this Bill from the Senate. It is very interesting that, even after 10 years, we are still looking at the structure of financial management of these entities. It is a whole issue of devolution. In my view, when devolution came, we...
