PUKOSE ROBERT

She wants to inform me. I will allow her to inform me if she wants.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand under Standing Order 95, that the mover be called to reply. I think the only person supporting this Motion is Hon. Ngogoyo, for his best reasons. Hon. Leah, we will allow her to support together with Hon. Sunkuyia. I think that will go into...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I second. THE COUNTY ALLOCATION OF REVENUE BILL

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I want to thank Members for supporting the Bill. I especially want to thank the Chairperson of the Committee for leading the debate on the County Allocation of Revenue Bill. My county, Trans Nzoia, is getting Ksh8.2 billion. I am happy that Governor Natembeya was not on...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table: Report of the Budget and Appropriations Committee on its consideration of the County Allocation of Revenue Bill (Senate Bill No. 10 of 2026) . Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I would like the Chair to clarify whether dodder, also known as cuscuta – which is a parasitic weed – has any beneficial results. I was just googling because I wanted to find out about dodder. I have also seen it on the fence in...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, Hon. Ngogoyo thanked the Committee. This report has come from the Ministry and he should also thank the Ministry and by extension, the Government that it is doing a good work.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker and Chairperson, for moving this Motion. I rise to second the County Allocation of Revenue Bill. This is a Bill that originated from the Senate, and as the Chairman has put it, the Committee has not proposed any amendments to it. This Bill distributes funds...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Caroli, the presiding Speaker, has ruled on the matter. Please, allow the debate to proceed. Hon. Temporary Speaker, thank you for that ruling. This Petition was filed by a community, and I happen to come from that part of the country. Chebyuk Phases II...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to the Bill. At the outset, I support the Sovereign Wealth Fund Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 7 of 2026) . As the Leader of the Majority Party and the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Finance and...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support the request for Statement by Hon. Kamket. In line with what the Member for Sigowet/Soin said, we would like the response to include all the areas that benefit from the Equalisation Fund. I urge my colleagues who are still stuck in the 15...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to second the Supplementary Appropriation (No. 2) Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 38 of 2026) . This is to allow the Government to now withdraw funds to fund the projects as ably substantiated by my Chairman. Therefore, I second.

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I stand under Standing Order 81 on relevance. We are talking about the Supplementary Appropriation Bill which is about allowing Government to withdraw funds to finance programmes. The only relevant thing he has talked about in that Supplementary Appropriation Bill is paying teachers and examiners. So, is...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I second.

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I second. (Question proposed)

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Pukose, what is out of order? Hon. Temporary Speaker, when Hon. Wamboka rose, he was to inform the Member for Makueni and not the House. What he is trying to pass across is misinformation. This Finance Bill seeks to raise Ksh90...

On a point of order. What is out of order, Hon. Pukose? Hon. Temporary Speaker, I believe we have exhaustively debated this matter. May I request that the Mover be now called upon to reply? That the Mover be called upon to reply. Put the question. (Loud consultations)

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to second the Motion on consideration of the Supplementary Estimates II for the Financial Year 2025/2026. As my Chairperson has stated, this is a very small supplementary budget affecting only a few State Departments. It re-allocates funds to areas we were not able...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to second this Bill. As Members are aware, this will allow the Government to release funds in the next financial year to operationalise the Budget that was read and the Estimates considered by this House. We did extensive deliberations on these Estimates through the...

A very sad event happened at ADC Olingadongo where Dennis Ndiema was killed. This is not the first time this has happened. We had two people killed in Chonipawa by NPR officers. To date, no one has been apprehended. The suspect disappeared. Recently, when they recruited the new team, we...

Hon. Speaker, I second. (Question of the amendment proposed)

Put the question. (Programmes 0777000,0778000, 0779000 and 0780000 agreed to) (Vote 1073 agreed to) VOTE 1082 - STATE DEPARTMENT FOR MEDICAL SERVICES VOTE 1083 - STATE DEPARTMENT FOR PUBLIC HEALTH AND PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS

Mhe. Mwenyekiti wa Muda, nilikuwa nimeomba nafasi ya kuchangia wakati Mheshimiwa wa Tetu alipokuwa akijaribu kupotosha Bunge kwa kudai kwamba amefanikiwa kukata zaidi ya bilioni tisaini na moja. Hayo ni mambo ya kusema tu. Hata hivyo, tunapoelekea katika mazungumzo ya maridhiano kati ya Seneti na Bunge la Taifa, tunaweza kuzingatia...

Niko kwenye hoja ya nidhamu. The Temporary Chairman (Hon. David Ochieng’) : Haukuwa kwenye hoja ya nidhamu.

Mhe. Mwenyekiti wa Muda, Kiongozi wa Chama cha Waliowengi amenipa mawazo yake na sitasema mengi kupita hapo. Ila tu kusema kwamba kuna baadhi ya kamati za Seneti ambazo mara nyingi, hujihusisha na masuala ya Jumba hili. Wakati tunapojadili kuhusu mgao wa fedha, tutumie equity kulingana na idadi ya watu tuko...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I second. (Question proposed)

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Thank you, my Chair, for moving the Motion on adoption of the Report on the Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure for the Financial Year 2026/2027 and the Medium Term. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I just want to join my Chair in thanking the Chairs of the...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to confirm that when the Report was tabled in 2016 by the Departmental Committee on Health, I seconded it. The Chair was Hon. Nyamai. What I wanted to ask the Cabinet Secretary… (Laughter) If it is a statement of fact, it remains a statement...

I think you are wasting my time. This is the problem. You do not understand that this is about the matter we were ratifying. Hon. Speaker, what I wanted to ask…

What the Leader of the Minority Party is saying is true. We ratified the Agreement as the National Assembly and it became the law of Kenya, because ratification means it becomes part of the law of the country. Ask the question. My question to the Cabinet Secretary is this: When...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. Let me inform Hon. Dawood what a private forest means. For example, farmers, like myself, own private forests where we plant trees within our farms. Those are examples of private forests. No one can come and do their things on a private farm. On my...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. This is a very important amendment that has been brought by the Hon. Chairman. I link the amendment to Clause 6. We are not going to have forest rangers be under the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) . Forest rangers have been misbehaving and have...

Yes. That is exactly what I want to state. Endebess Constituency also controls the larger part of Mt. Elgon East—from Suam, the border of Uganda, all the way to Sabaot and Mua Land on the slopes of Mt. Elgon. I want to state to the Member that we have no...

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I support that amendment because having a CFA representative who is responsible to them makes a lot of sense, as these are part and parcel of the Kenya Forest Act. Therefore, we must ensure that not just anyone is chosen to represent them, but someone who is...

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I was getting interested in this. I support the position where we talk of other related degrees, because what is the relevance of a master’s degree in law in this matter? You will always see law included in many of these drafts. I do not know whether...

I want to clarify to Hon. Rahim that I did not say ‘any other degree’. I said ‘or other related degrees.’

He quoted me as having said, “any other degree”. I said, “or other related degrees”. The Temporary Chairlady (Hon (Dr) Rachael Nyamai) : I was very keen.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to support the Forest Conservation and Management (Amendment) Bill with some amendments. Our forests are actually our life and therefore they must be protected. I come from a constituency which has three big forests, namely; Swam, Kimothon and Kiptogot Forests, which are within the...

Thank you Hon. Speaker for allowing me to contribute to the Report of the Committee. I come from the tea growing areas of Kapsara, Cherangany and Munyaka. We also have tea farmers in Saboti, Kapretwa area. These are some of the areas we call West of the Rift Valley. The...
