Julius Kibiwot Melly

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I rise to support the ratification of the treaty creating AFC. Ratification of this treaty is long overdue since AFC started operations in 2007. Africa is one of the wealthiest continents in the world. It has a very young, energetic and educated...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Hon. Speaker, I will bring it in two weeks. The request needs a comprehensive answer.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) I will bring the Statement in two weeks, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Yes, Hon. Speaker, I will respond in the next three weeks. Thank you.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I know our Muslim brothers have Iftar celebrations. I rise to support this Supplementary Estimates II. The Bill takes into consideration the Medium-Term Debt Management Strategy, ensuring that spending is reduced and does not go against debt management in the...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Report by the Liaison Committee, where I sit as a member. This Report is very important because it provides strategies on how to manage our debt in the Medium-Term. This debt management strategy is a policy...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. All the itemised loans that we have need to be integrated into the financial systems. Even as we procure loans—and I laud what the Member for Marakwet East said—it must be done publicly. No loan should be procured by two...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Member for Funyula is completely out of order in this sense. It is a fact that this paper has been prepared adequately. We gave timelines that the National Treasury was supposed to adhere to what we said as the Liaison Committee...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) He is out of order because he is giving false lies that this paper is for the sake of the donors.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support this Bill. I thank Hon. Shinali who has seen it right that the gold processing sector be regulated, organised and further developed. This Bill is long overdue. I remember one time when the Government of Kenya...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The Member for Soy is completely out of order. We responded to his Statement here, and as the Departmental Committee on Education, we visited the University of Nairobi and found a number of issues. Hon. Speaker Order, Hon. Melly. He has...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Bill. Equalisation Fund has been used by many developed nations to uplift areas within their countries to be at par with the rest of the country. I support this Bill because in this country, some...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I identified an issue in Clause 4 of the Bill. It states that the Fund shall, pursuant to Article 204 (1) of the Constitution, consist of one half of all revenue collected by the national Government. I will propose an...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Hon. Speaker, the information requested by the Hon. Member is very urgent and, therefore, two weeks is very far. 18th February 2025 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 1

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Hon. Speaker, I want to bring it on Tuesday next week. I will be ready with it then.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I take this time to condole with the families of our two honourable colleagues - Hon. Cheptumo and Hon. Moses Malulu Injendi. We came to this House with Hon. Malulu Injendi in 2013. As my colleagues have said, he was very...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to thank the Member for Soy for raising this matter. The Committee is seized of it. The University of Nairobi has been experiencing a lot of internal wrangles lately, and this has been widely covered in the media. As...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Tuesday, yes.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) I am actually an alumnus of “The University of Nairobi” and I must take it with a lot of concern.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) I will, Hon. Speaker. I think the issues that are there are quite big and historical. I agree with Hon. Oundo and the other Members that many of those issues are administrative, governance-related and financial. Those challenges have been ongoing, stretching back to the time...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) That is it.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) And the Chairman of the Council is even signing letters to sack workers and even to employ others. It is very wrong.
