Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to support this Budget. I have a serious concern. While we are showing very good figures in our Budget; a figure of Kshs2.6 trillion, in reality, it is based on high economic activities, increased revenue collection from...

Hon. Nyamweya Hon. Speaker, thank you for giving me a chance to comment on this. This is a serious issue that is taking place between the Kisii and Kipsigis border. Lives of people have been disrupted. We are a farming community. We rely on farming but more importantly we produce...

Hon. Nyamweya I stand guided, Hon. Speaker. We urge Members of the committee concerned to take immediate action so that peace is restored at the place and people become productive as they have always been. Thank you.

Hon. Nyamweya On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this Report. The point I want to raise is that this Report has been negotiated by both sides of the House. It involved the leadership of the House, including the Leader of the Majority Party...

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I would like to point out one thing about sharing of revenue. The Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) cannot work effectively without getting enough funding. It needs a lot of money to train manpower, buy equipment and cover all that they require....

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to support this very important discussion about the Adoption of the Report of the PAC. I want to lay one emphasis on the wastage of funds. We have unsupported expenditure of Kshs66 billion. I am going to...

Hon. Nyamweya Hon. Speaker, is the Member in order because what happens is that the Chief Justice recommends who is going to be the accounting officer? The National Treasury then appoints---

Hon. Nyamweya That is what it is. The National Treasury appoints. Let us get it clear here. Is the Hon. Member in order?

Hon. Nyamweya On a point of order, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Nyamweya On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. It is not fair for a Member of this Committee to mislead the House. It was the JSC which sanctioned the payment. They held a special meeting. It is in the Report. Therefore, it is not fair for a Member to...

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this chance to contribute to this Bill. I want to note that this is a very brilliant and well-thought out Bill. However, they have not indicated to us how it is going to be funded. For any law that we pass...

Point of information. Hon. Nyamweya Yes, please.

Hon. Nyamweya Yes, I want to be informed.

Hon. Nyamweya Hon. Speaker, what the Member has said is true. But I have read through the Bill and it has recognised the Attorney-General as an individual or an entity. So, the Committee needs to delete one.

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As I have said, if they get the funds directly from the Exchequer and not through the Attorney-General, that body should not be domiciled in the Office of the Attorney-General. It has to be independent and separated. Another problem is that it is not...

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me a chance to contribute. I will draw your attention to Article 125 of the Constitution which Hon. Mbadi has referred to. I want to refer to Sub-Clause (2) of this Article. The purpose of Sub-Clause (1) is that a House of...

Hon. Nyamweya On a point of information.

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As our Chairman has said, we are facing a very serious challenge. The accounting officers were there when the money was spent. In the past, we could understand that accounting officers were not in office then. It was understandable but now, we have accounting...

Hon. Nyamweya On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. (Ms.) Shebesh) : Hon. Manson Nyamweya, what is out of order? Hon. Nyamweya Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am raising a point of order on the Report we are discussing. I have gone through...

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to raise this point on the Petition. I have gone through this letter and I have noted that it is not dated when it was received. I thank the Committee for taking the action that they took....

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I had put in a question to be answered; unfortunately, I will not be in next week. Can I ask that this question be postponed, so that it can be answered when I am available?

Hon. Nyamweya The Cabinet Secretary for Devolution and Planning.

Hon. Nyamweya (Inaudible)

Hon. Nyamweya My worry is the condition that I will have to join the queue and I have given a reason why I will not be in.

Hon. Nyamweya Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me the chance to contribute to this Motion. First and foremost, I want to say I support it, but you know this House participated in forming a Mediation Committee. To me the Mediation Committee is normally formed for an ordinary Bill. It...

Hon. Nyamweya On a point of order, hon. Speaker.

Hon. Nyamweya On a point of order, hon. Speaker. I need your guidance on this. Is hon. (Dr.) Pukose in order to say that the EACC has been asking Members for bribes? Can he name them because this is a serious issue we are discussing? As a Member of Parliament,...
