Sen. Melly Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to give notice of the following Motion:- THAT, WHEREAS Kenya is traditionally known for its outstanding performance in athletics, especially in middle and long distance running; AND WHEREAS athletics is part of Brand Kenya efforts and has immensely contributed to marketing the country...

Sen. Melly

Sen. Melly On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I do not wish to interrupt the distinguished Senator from Uasin Gishu, but did you notice that the distinguished Sen. Melly is actually reading his speech instead of moving the Motion. Is he in order? - THAT, WHEREAS Kenya...

Order, Senator. Just one minute. Just for the record and for the benefit of Members, when the Notice of Motion was given earlier in the afternoon, the Speaker emphasized that it was by leave of the Senate and that is what appears on the Order Paper. It is good that...

Sen. Melly Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we debate the level of allocation – we are glad that we have the Chairperson of the Committee on Finance Commerce and Budge there – there are some allocations which were not well explained. However, I stand guided and I withdraw that remark.

Sen. Melly Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion because it is significant and worthwhile. It draws our attention to a very important sector of our society that is hardly recognized, except when we see the performance on television. As the Mover said, this October 1st, 2015...

Sen. Melly

Hon. Melly Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill after Hon. (Eng.) Gumbo. When you look at the engineering profession, Sessional Paper No.12 of 2012 divides the field into engineering, engineering technologists, technicians and operators. As a progressive nation, we are supposed to have Bills...

Hon. Melly Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I want to say that in this Bill, if you look at the students who have been introduced by this clause, I would prefer--- (Hon. (Ms.) Kajuju crossed the Floor without bowing) The Temporary Deputy Chairman (Hon. Cheboi) : Hon. Kajuju, you...

Hon. Melly You have dropped it? Thank you. The Temporary Deputy Chairman (Hon. Cheboi) : Let us specifically deal with this amendment. On this other side, let us have Hon. Stephen Kariuki of Mathare.

Hon. Melly Thank you, Hon. Speaker. First, the issue of education in north eastern is an issue of national concern. It is not an issue for that region alone. It’s a national issue. I want to make it very clear that it is not that we want to cut one...

Sen. Melly Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to make a very small contribution on the same.

Sen. Melly Let us listen to Sen. Billow.

Hon. Melly Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. First of all, I want to promise this House that we shall investigate this issue, and discuss it in detail. We shall look at not only the issue of Bura Girls Secondary School, but all aspects and forms of discrimination that are in...

Hon. Melly Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. First of all, I want to promise this House that we shall investigate this issue, and discuss it in detail. We shall look at not only the issue of Bura Girls Secondary School, but all aspects and forms of discrimination that are in...

Hon. Melly Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to support the Bill. This Bill is timely. First of all, it regulates the industry. This is a very essential service. Apart from the mainstream security provision by the Government, the private sector provides security services. For the first time, there is an...

Sen. Melly Mr. Speaker, Sir, during the short two weeks’ recess, we visited a number of counties. The last county we visited was Nakuru County. Though we were going for a different mission with regard to ICT, a number of issues came up. It is in order for the committee...

Sen. Melly

Hon. Melly Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill, but with a number of recommendations for amendments. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. Cheboi) : Let me know. Are you speaking as the Vice-Chairman or in your capacity as the Member for Tinderet? Hon. Melly Hon....

Hon. Melly (Technical hitch) It looks like that microphone was not functional. In fact, the High Court in Nakuru ruled that the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) be committed to civil jail for not honouring the Court’s ruling. The Government was also supposed to pay...

Sen. Melly

Hon. Melly Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. First of all, I want to thank the Senate for these amendments, especially on Clause 124 on evaluation of tenders by public entities. This will ensure that all the entities that have applied to participate in a tender process are capable and will...
