Sen. Sang Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am a member of that Committee.

Sen. Sang Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you allow me, I will inform the Vice- Chair that this Statement has been pending for long. Therefore, I request for two weeks.

Sen. Sang Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the Chairperson confirm that after the Kshs15 billion was given in a skewed manner to certain communities, no more money is actually being sought to pay the remaining IDPs? Secondly, could the Chairperson confirm that the IDPs that were located at Suba- Kuria...

Sen. Sang You are the one who was telling me that there is no rule that allows people to ride on other people’s Statements and I said we will allow it but I will not allow you or anybody else to make a statement. If you want to ride on...

Sen. Sang Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to ride on this request. I would not use it to make a Statement but I want to know why a Cabinet Secretary, in desiring to give directive or instructions to a duly constituted constitutional body, would

I will consider that but we are in the middle of Statements. The request being made by Sen. Sang is important and as you know, I cannot order but only request you not to leave the House before we vote on those two items. Before we do that, we have...

Sen. Sang This is the time I am receiving the Communication from the Clerk’s office and fortunately or unfortunately, the students are not from Kisumu. I do not know how you identified them Sen. (Prof.) Anyang-Nyong’o from there. Hon. Senators, I wish to recognise the presence of Class Eight pupils...

Yes, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I request most respectfully, that you withhold the introduction because that does not amount to an introduction. It can only be an introduction after you have said who it is that you are introducing. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there are two aspects about that pronouncement...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I actually want to help the House. Yesterday, I delivered a letter to the Serjeant-at-Arms from the Principal of Barkorua Girls Secondary School which is in my county. I informed them that the girls would be visiting the Senate today. Just before I came in here,...

On a point of order. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. The Serjeant-At- Arms may not be able to give you sufficient information about the school and why they are here. If you get that information, it will be half the information. Now that the Senator from the County is here, could...

the presence of students from Kisumu County. There must be a full accreditation and introduction. At this juncture, it is only the Senator for Kisumu County who can do that effectively because I can see the details are not yet here.Would I be in order to ask the Chair to...

Before I give Sen. (Dr.) Machage a chance to raise a point of order, let me say the Office of the Serjeant-At-Arms needs to be serious with their work. I order them just as other Members have raised concerns, anytime we have visitors they need to be taken seriously. The...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Did you notice the breach of security of this House by the security team in the names of Serjeant- At-Arms for allowing visitors whose identity they do not know? I would not really be in support of the statement from Sen....

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as the Chairman of the Committee on Education, I am alarmed when the position of the Speaker or the Chairman, for that matter, chooses not to recognize students when they come to the Senate. When I am here I see students come in and within five...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is very unfortunate that this situation has risen and embarrassed the House. I have seen in many reputable institutions that behind there, is a visitors book which I think can keep a very good record since this is a House of records. The leaders of...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I sympathise with the situation we are in today because I cannot understand the reason we are making this matter to be bigger than what we might think. The reason is that this House is guided by the rules and September 30, 2015 SENATE DEBATES

procedures. I expect our Standing Orders to explain clearly what is supposed to be done when we have visitors in the Speaker’s Gallery or the Public Gallery. We all know very well that this is a public House. We are elected to be here on their behalf. Therefore, we need...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to also support this historical Motion that has been brought to the House. From the outset, let me congratulate Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. for seeing it fit to bring an important Motion to this House. Let me also congratulate...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Motion; that the Senate urges the NLC to urgently and within 60 days submit to this Senate a Bill to provide that this matter be sorted out. It is, indeed, a shame that we can pay those commissioners so...

Order, Senator! You must stick to the Motion.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am talking about historical injustices. As I move to the substance of the Motion, I cannot be proud of being a Senator in Kenya when we have closed down 20,000 primary schools and 6,000 secondary schools. We must, indeed, all of us be very foolish...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Is Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale in order to keep staring at me throughout as though I am the author of his problems? (Laughter)

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in congratulating Sen. Murkomen, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., and the entire team for a job well done. I think the success of this Committee was achieved because they also decided to take time in not addressing the media. We did not...

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in thanking Joel Kiprono Rop for the Petition. This gentleman is personally known to me. He is one of the informed, passionate and brilliant Kenyans. This is his second Petition to the Senate. Whereas I agree with my colleagues- --

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, whereas I agree with my colleagues that the subject matter of this Petition is one that cannot be achieved through a Petition, it now lies with the relevant Committee of this House where the Petition will be committed to advise. I know that in the...

Sen. Sang Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir.

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to continue moving this Bill. The Office of the County Printer Bill (Sen. Bill No.42 of 2014) seeks to establish the office of the county printer as indicated so that we may have a county printer in each of the 47 counties. The...

Sen. Sang Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I wish to take this opportunity to thank my fellow colleagues who have supported this Bill. I thank Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., whom we have worked together with in the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights, throughout the process of developing this Bill....

Sen. Sang Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it includes participating in processes that are constitutional, dressed in a manner that the occasion dictates. Therefore, we will continue to make these sacrifices, but we also need a little more sacrifices from our counties to ensure that things work in the manner that...

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise, pursuant to Standing Order No.45 (2) (b) , to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations on the rising insecurity in Nandi County, particularly Kapsabet and its environs, Mosoriot and Mosoriot Town Centre. In...

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, I appreciate a number of the riding questions that have been raised by several Senators relating to my Statement. This Statement touches on security. We are talking about residents---

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, would I be in order to request that the Vice Chairperson splits the question into two? The issue of boda boda can wait but she should respond to the element of security within one week because this is a very serious issue. We have animosity...

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, on behalf of the Legal Affairs Committee and Human Rights, I want to agree with Sen. (Prof.) Lesan. As we have always done, we can always have one Committee leading the process. However, in the process of consideration of the petition, we will definitely involve...

Sen. Sang Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was demoted subsequently after pushing the same front bench on several occasions to deliver to this House. I undertake to pass the information and to indicate to the Chairperson of the Committee on Energy that the statement should be brought here in one week....

Sen. Sang On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. After taking the trouble to inform the Chairperson and my leadership that I will undertake to bring an answer, did you hear Prof. Lonyangapuo describing me as “an emissary”? I am a distinguished Senator who has taken the trouble to...
