Hon. Anthony Oluoch (Mathare, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, as I was saying, there is an element of criminality. These fire tragedies are not mere coincidental fires.

Hon. Anthony Oluoch (Mathare, ODM) Hon. Temporary Chairman, this deletion would save a situation whereby the estates of a deceased person who had no idea about debts or liabilities that they had and have no means by which to meet them are saved from being auctioned and run down. This...

Hon. Anthony Oluoch (Mathare, ODM) Hon. Temporary Chairman, we are dealing with different issues here. The proposed amendment seeks to insert the words "in regulations under by the Cabinet Secretary" appearing immediately after the word "prescribe." As per the Order Paper, this word should be the same as in the...

Hon. Anthony Oluoch (Mathare, ODM) Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Chairman. When we were conducting public participation on this matter, one of the key issues that emerged was the need to address governance within the co-operatives themselves. This is one of the key issues that the co-operative commissioner will...
