Hon. Kajwang’ On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I have a point of order while waiting for the Long Title as Hon. Sakaja and Hon. Were have informed us. I get worried about how this Bill is being drafted. This thing about Kenyans and job seekers, who...

Hon. Kajwang’ Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I appreciate my colleague, Hon. Johnson Sakaja, for seeing the content of my issue. The Temporary Deputy Chairman (Hon. Cheboi) : Hon. Kajwang’, I am trying to see what we should do first. Hon. Sakaja is moving that particular amendment. I think...

Hon. Kajwang’ We may not have agreed on the text. The Temporary Deputy Chairman (Hon. Cheboi) : So, let us hear you, Hon. Sakaja, if that can help.

Hon. Kajwang’ Thank you for your indulgence. Now, I understand where we are because I did not know that “job seekers” had been used elsewhere in the Bill. This comes immediately after the definition of “job seekers.” So, the further amendment will be in the following terms:- THAT, “Kenyan” means...

Hon. Kajwang’ Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, with your special leave, I move an amendment for the definition of the word “Kenyan” appearing after the definition of “job seeker” in Clause 2. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, “Kenyans” means a citizen of the Republic of Kenya as...

Sen. M. Kajwang

Sen. M. Kajwang Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise to oppose the adjournment. This is because the Bill was moved, seconded and several Senators have spoken to it. That is perfectly in accordance with procedure. If, at this time, the Senator wants to adjourn debate on it, he should first...

Sen. M. Kajwang Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Statement on this matter is not ready. However, I undertake to follow it up and have it issued in the next two weeks.

Sen. M. Kajwang On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. In the English language, there is a word called “absconding” which refers to a situation where a leader or someone gives up a job that they have been given to do. Would I be in order, in light...

Sen. M. Kajwang Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I will attempt to respond to most of those concerns. As you were trying to seek more information, a school delegation came in here and they were seated behind you dressed in uniform meaning there is learning going on. September 17th, 2015 SENATE...

Sen. M. Kajwang Mr. Temporary Speaker, I take this opportunity to thank the Chairperson, Sen. Kittony, for addressing this serious matter. In this country, the education and health sectors are facing challenges. One of the major challenges in the health sector is that we have very few health workers and...

Sen. M. Kajwang

Sen. M. Kajwang On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I thank the Chair of the Committee for the response. Unfortunately, we come from the same disadvantaged region. The issue of National Identity Cards (IDs) is a national concern. The two things that you get to hear constantly...

Sen. M. Kajwang Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am not privy to any information on the Statement but I will endeavour to make sure that we get it. Sen. Kittony has been here but it would be very naïve for us to pick any document from a lady’s bag. (Laughter)...

Sen. M. Kajwang Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I will ignore that information because I have better information that the heads of States stayed away in solidarity with the teachers. But allow me to proceed.

Sen. M. Kajwang Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for the guidance. I will hit the point on the Bill before us, but the teachers of this nation deserve to be paid what the court has awarded them. This Bill by the Sen. (Eng.) Muriuki tries to do some noble...

Sen. M. Kajwang Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. First, let me take this opportunity to thank the Seconder and Senators who contributed to this Bill. I am delighted to see the kind of interest there is. Unfortunately, there seems to be some kind of tradition in this House that...

Hon. Kajwang’ Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker--- The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. (Ms.) Mbalu) : It is the Mover of the Bill who moves the Third Reading. Hon. Kajwang’ I beg your pardon. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. (Ms.) Mbalu) : Thank you. The Chairperson has done a very good job.

Hon. Kajwang’ Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to report that the Committee of the whole House has considered the Special Economic Zones Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 6 of 2015) and approved the same with amendments.

Hon. Kajwang’ On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. (Ms.) Mbalu) : What is it, Hon. Kajwang’? Hon. Kajwang’ Did you hear the Member for Garissa Township say that the Member for Rarieda has misbehaved? Could he explain to us the type of...

Hon. Kajwang’ Hon. Deputy Speaker, the cry of the Member for Homa Bay Town is a cry of this Nation.

Hon. Kajwang The Member for Kiminini should know that there is Article 107 in which Members of the Speaker’s Panel ranks some order of precedence in the Constitution. (Applause) Hon. KajwangFor that reason, I want to root that the amendment proposals by Hon. Kaluma are at the core of enhancing...

The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. Kajwang’): I have a request list here that is not very long. I just want to know if these
