Thank you, Hon. Speaker for this opportunity. I want to bring to the attention of the House that today is Ash Wednesday. I want to take this opportunity to wish all the Catholic faithful in this House a fruitful Lent season. This is the time that the Catholic faithful start...

Hon. Speaker, I beg to give notice of the following Motion: THAT, aware that Article 43 (1) (a) of the Constitution provides that every person has the right to the highest attainable standard of health, which includes the right to health care services; further aware that the Government committed to...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Allow me to add my voice on this matter as a Member of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock. I would also like to inform Hon. Pukose that even fishermen are farmers. It is a type of farming known as ‘fish farming.’ So, you cannot...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to offer my condolences to the people of Malava and Baringo following the passing on of Hon. Injendi and Senator Cheptumo. I worked with both Members. I worked with Hon. Injendi in the 11th Parliament where I chaired the Departmental Committee on Education. He...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Let me also join my colleagues in congratulating the former Prime Minister, Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga. He is a man I worked closely with. I know him as a father and a mentor. Africa missed a man who had goodwill and the strength of Pan-Africanism,...

No, Hon. Speaker. I want to give my tribute to Mr. Leonard Mambo Mbotela. Okay. Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I am a veteran journalist who happened to have worked with the late Leonard Mambo Mbotela, one of our senior fathers, in broadcasting. He inspired a...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I second. As the House Business Committee plans on limitation of debate, there are many important private Member’s Bills. I know the Committee tends to prioritise Government Bills, which is okay. So, there are many Bills that need to come to the Floor of the...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute. At the outset, this judgement is meant to bring paralysis in this House. You need to make a decision on this matter. Having listened to my colleagues on this judgement which I have also gone through, there is a...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I join my colleagues in congratulating Hon. Chepkong’a and the team. NG-CDF has really brought development on the ground. I cannot forget NGAAF that we as Woman Representatives fought for, so that County Woman Members can have an impact on the ground. Though not many...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I stand to support that amendment, and I commend the Committee for the deletion. We know a lot of young people are trading online. Nowadays you do not have to go to a shop. You just have to go online and order for anything you...

Hon. Temporary Chairman, I support that proposal. It is important that we encourage investors to invest outside Nairobi. Apart from what the Chairman has raised about decongesting Nairobi, we already have devolved governments. We fear people who set up industries and invest outside Nairobi, say, in Murang’a, Mombasa, Turkana and...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. On behalf of us wives, we want to thank you. Sometimes, not everything you have is fully disclosed to your spouse, and it can be held against the person if they did not know there was no full disclosure. The issue with husbands reporting on...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I do not know why the men in this House are purporting to be wives. They are now speaking on behalf of wives. As I have said, a wife may have not disclosed everything and the husband will be held responsible. So, it is saving...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I support Hon. Muriu’s amendment. We all know what ‘paid’ means. We are talking about transactions. If you have not received payment, how then do you pay VAT unless you are assuming the person has money they are not using? The people who trade with...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Yes, I am the Whip of the Jubilee Party, in case someone did not know, and just to let you know that the Temporary Speaker is also a member of the Jubilee Party. We are also the third largest party in this House. I rise...

On a point of order. The Temporary Chairman (Hon. Omboko Milemba) : Let me hear the point of order from Hon. Sabina Chege. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have heard you mention a side of the mountain. I just want to confirm that the mountain is one and is...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As I stand to support the Motion by the Chairman, I also want to mention that energy is very important in any Republic or country. When we were in Naivasha during the leadership conference, I want to recognise the efforts by Hon. Jane Kagiri who...

Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker. At the outset, I support this Bill. I also congratulate Hon. Alice Wambui Ng’ang’a, Member for Thika Town, for a good job done with her Committee. When I listened to the stakeholders and how they engaged, I was very impressed because sometimes Bills come and...

Thank you. I thank Hon. Junet for bringing the Motion. I concur with many things that my colleagues have said, but I do not want to repeat them. Let me say something that no one has said. This House deserves to respect itself. We have had our own colleagues going...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. At the outset, I congratulate my brother, Hon. Kimani, and the entire team in the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning. This Bill should have come yesterday. I know the people who spoke before spoke a lot about it. It looks at the local...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I second.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support this Bill by Hon. Oundo. It proposes the establishment of a Land Control Committee in each constituency to replace the current Land Control Board. Hon. Oundo has proposed that the Land Control Committee will come from the local people who are...
