Sen. Shiyonga Hon. Senators--- September 27, 2018 SENATE DEBATES Sen. Shiyonga Hon. Senators, thank you for that intervention. Having heard your submissions, I now rule that this is a matter that touches on counties and, therefore, it will have to be a vote by county delegations. That means that we...

Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to support this Motion. I wish I had read this Motion before. We have had a problem which I would like to bring it to the attention of the Mover. While this is a devolved function, national Government has not funded it either through conditional...

to the young people and even the old because it is not only the young. We have skilled labourers for example, plumbers who started their plumbing a long time ago but they do not have certificates. There is a place in Nairobi near Jamia or Khoja Mosque – I confuse...

For your information, I think we have 1,450 wards countrywide. So, it is manageable.

Madam Temporary Speaker, yes. That is what I am saying. The Motion has proposed every location in a county. If it was Makueni, you would have 3,117 locations which would be much more difficult than setting up 1,450. We have over 3,000 villages and locations. Locations are less. That would...

You have one minute so that we have time for the Mover to reply.

There is no reason why a Motion like this cannot get the sort of support that we gave Sen. (Eng.) Karue, former Senator for Nyandarua, to create five headquarters where each got Kshs465 million. It is possible. If we cost how much it would take for us to have 1450...

Senate Minority Leader, I wish that you be brief so that we have the Mover to reply because we would like to conclude.

Madam Temporary Speaker, first of all, I would like to congratulate Sen. (Prof.) Kamar. For those who know, this is the work that she is taking forward from where she started, having been a lecturer at Moi University then rose to the level of administration having served as a principal...

Since I do not think there is any reason why this motion should spill over to Tuesday, I support Sen. (Prof.) Kamar. I thank her for coming up with such a very wonderful Motion and creating and imagining about us pushing counties.I agree with what Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. said....

Having no further interventions, I now invite the Mover to reply.

At the moment, our youth are desperate; they feel that there are no jobs and that there is nobody training them.Madam Temporary Speaker, since the Government announced this year that training in national polytechnics will be free, we have seen that our people have...

Hon. Senators---

On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. This is a Motion concerning counties. If I may speak on behalf of the Mover of the Motion, it will only be right that we defer putting of the Question to the next day so that we can do a proper Division....

Hon. Senators, thank you for that intervention. Having heard your submissions, I now rule that this is a matter that touches on counties and, therefore, it will have to be a vote by county delegations. That means that we put it off to the next Order Paper, as we resume...

Hon. Senators, it is now 6.30 p.m., time to interrupt the business of the Senate. The Senate, therefore, stands adjourned until Tuesday, 2nd October, 2018, at 2.30 p.m. in Nairobi. The Senate rose at 6.30 p.m.

Sen. Shiyonga Very well; you will speak at another time.

Sen. Shiyonga(Laughter)

Sen. Shiyonga Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I also rise to contribute to this Bill. From the onset, this is a good Bill because petroleum being a natural resource, it has gone a long way in improving the economies of the countries where it has been found. However, we have...

Madam Temporary Speaker, I support the adoption of the CPAIC report of the Senate on the Auditor General’s Report for Nakuru County for the FY 2013/2014. This is an old report and the Committee which handled it was the Committee for the first Senate. That is how far we are...

If we get the oversight funds, the Senators must also have a parallel oversight report for the counties which should also be submitted to the CPAIC.I have always wondered how we will channel our reports to the Senate and get governors to...

Hon. Senators, I see no further request. I, therefore, ask the Mover to reply.

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I wish to thank the Senators who have spoken to this Motion and tendered their unconditional support to it. We have taken note and received very useful feedback from all the Senators, especially from the Senator for Nakuru, whose county we are discussing today. Madam...

We believe that county assemblies should carry out primary oversight while the Senate carries out secondary oversight.In the case of the Report for Nakuru County, I...

Sen. Shiyonga Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support the statement brought to the Floor by Sen. Waqo. It is so sad to stand in this House just to talk about murder. It is very unfortunate, and my sincere condolences to the two...

Sen. Shiyonga On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker.

Sen. Shiyonga Yes, Madam Temporary Speaker.

Sen. Shiyonga Madam Temporary Speaker, thank you for giving me this opportunity to join you in welcoming the various staff from our counties. It is great pleasure to have staff from various counties come to benchmark with us. When counties come to learn and see what the Senate does, it...

Sen. Shiyonga Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support the Report. I like its title: Adoption of Report on the First Extraordinary Session of The FP- ICGLR in Kinshasa, DRC. It looks good. It contains a lot that can help this great region....
