Gideon Moi

Hon. Moi Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The 10 per cent that is to be levied on a review is extremely punitive. For example, if you have a contract of Kshs40 million and you are asked to put down 10 per cent of that, it should be Kshs4 million...

Hon. Moi Yes, I have the microphone now. I just want to support the Departmental Committee Chairman because this amendment will remove all the ambiguities. There is no ambiguity. If someone wants to get evidence from whoever is taking the administrative action, then it is clear that the information must...

Sen. Moi On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. This is a very important day. Some Members have already had the opportunity to talk. We all represent each individual 47 counties. Those who wish to talk, because we came to talk and contribute, should be given the opportunity.
