What these numbers don’t measure
- Committee work
- Parliament publishes no committee attendance for either House, so nobody can count it — us included.
- Constituency work
- Funerals, harambees, schools, casework. Recorded nowhere we can read.
- Whether it worked
- We can count questions asked, not answers given.
- Speaking often isn’t speaking well. Use these to ask Peter Irungu Kihungi better questions — not to grade them.

Parliamentary Activity
Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I am not on this one. The Temporary Chairlady (Hon. (Dr) Rachael Nyamai): Do you have any interest in this? No. The Temporary Chairlady (Hon. (Dr) Rachael Nyamai) : Can those who are interested in this press the Intervention Button? Hon. Gichimu Githinji, Member for Gichugu.
Official Hansard sourceThank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. Clause 6 seeks to amend Section 22 (1) of the Tea Act, 2020, which provides that the board of directors of tea factory limited companies shall be a maximum of five. That is what is being deleted. I am opposed to that because we need...
Official Hansard sourceI wish to support the amendment because it was a concern to many when it was said that it should be paid to the brokers. It should be paid directly to the farmers. It was a concern for most of our farmers how they could pay, and they did not...
Official Hansard sourceThank you very much. I want to support the proposal by the Committee because there has been no incentive for our factories to put more emphasis on value addition. When they realise that they will be exempted from paying the levy by adding value and mostly by packing less than...
Official Hansard sourceHon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move the following Special Motion: THAT, taking into consideration the findings of the Departmental Committee on Labour in its report on the approval hearing of a Nominee for Emanating from the above observation, the Committee recommends that the House approves the appointment of Mr...
Official Hansard sourceOkay. Thank you. I may not commit, but within the time of recess, probably in the first two weeks, we can report on the Statement.
Official Hansard sourceHon. Temporary Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44 (2) (c) , I rise to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Tourism and Wildlife regarding the prevalence of stray wild dogs’ attack in Kangema Constituency. In the past few months, residents of...
Official Hansard sourceThank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to speak on the Audit Report of the Public Investments Committee. As one Member has put it, the most important thing is timelines. I have noticed that the Office of the Auditor-General is coming out clearly as stamping its authority in the institutions....
Official Hansard sourceThank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support the withdrawal of the Bill. I also question how the Bill went through all processes from the Senate and reached Parliament without the Mover or the Senate noticing the anomalies that they could rectify. However, I support what most...
Official Hansard sourceThank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand on behalf of Hon. Munyoro. The road passes from Ikumbi-Gacharage and then to my constituency at Ichichi-Kiruri-Wanjerere. The statement about the contractor is untrue because he did earth works in all sections of that road, hence the issue of maintenance is untrue. Already, the...
Official Hansard sourceThank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support the Bill by Hon. Baya. One thing I would like to say is that the limited timeline within which the Commission could deal with historical injustices on matters to do with land could have affected many important things and some of...
