On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Kindly allow me to raise two matters. There are issues that came to this House and have not been addressed. Two weeks ago, we raised an issue with Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA) having deducted money that is going to the constituencies for the Financial...

Hon. Speaker, even the Member requesting for the Statement sits in that Committee. Yes, but he cannot be a judge in his own case. He even has the answer, but we will bring it in two weeks’ time. (Laughter)

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to bring to the attention of the House that there is so much communication that comes to this House from the Cabinet Secretaries and Chairpersons of Committees that end up being messages of ensuring time passes. Last year, we had the Cabinet Secretary here...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. For those who are asking about ‘The School’, there is only one school in Kenya, and that is Alliance High School. (Laughter)

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On 16th October 2005, a letter from the National Treasury, addressed to the Clerk of the House, provided a clear schedule for the disbursement of the NG-CDF funds to the Board. I expected my Chairman to tell us where they are on those disbursements and why...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. First of all, I rise to oppose the request by Hon. Jematiah. The Motions before this House are sensitive because they are being debated at night.

Hon. Ochieng’, you are a seasoned Member. You cannot have... (Hon. Ochieng spoke off the record) Order, Hon, Ochieng’! Take your seat. Let us listen to Hon. Engoko. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I would like to request that you protect me from interruptions. Hon. Ochieng’, kindly allow me…

Hon. Temporary Speaker, first of all, I believe that the House has quorum. Therefore, the House is properly constituted to debate this Motion, unless a Member has a contrary opinion. We have quorum. So, the Motion should be debated. The Report raises serious concerns. It is an eye-opener. It is...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Report states clearly that there are shadowy figures in the whole transaction. Who is Kalahari? That is a question that could not be answered. To protect the interests of this country, I support the adoption of this Report by the House. Our work as legislators is...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Today we sit here mourning the loss of the father of the second liberation. A man who fought for the Constitution and the freedoms that we have and enjoy today. The freedom of speech and freedom of expression that we have today carry the name of...

No, Hon. Speaker. Okay, go on. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would like to raise a matter of concern. Departmental Committees are an extension of this House. The conduct of Members and witnesses in committees is wanting. They should simply follow the rules of this House. Today, in the Departmental...

We can receive an answer immediately after the recess, or next week at the latest.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I will focus on the response to the strikes by our university lecturers. I think the ministry has really learned the art of hiding behind the SRC. This is not the first time. Regarding the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) of 2021/2025, valued at Ksh9.7 billion,...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I will just make a correction that my name is Clive, so that I do not get named Olive. I thank Hon. CNN for bringing this timely Motion. He has been telling me about this Motion being on the Order Paper for the last almost...
