Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I thank the Petitioner for raising this matter on the Consumer Protection Act and any other relevant existing legal frameworks. I vividly remember that this is one area in which former legislator, Joe Donde dwelt on for a very long time....

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The questions that were asked by Members and myself, have not been adequately answered. In fact, the main question that was supposed to be dealt with, was why schools are on the road going to Meru without funding and that the public and Members of Parliament...

We had also asked him to give the account number…

I am happy that the Chairman has said that he cannot carry the Cabinet Secretary’s cross. That is why it is important that the Cabinet Secretary comes and deals with these questions. On the question that dealt with the facilitation for the teachers and students when they are out, the...

Well, I wish to indicate that one Member seems to calculate the money going to school from a point of BODMAS. You must know that 6th August 2025 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 15 not all students participate in the games. The bigger lump sum is what is used to benefit all...

Very well, Hon. Member. Let us make progress. Hon. Jackson Kosgei.

Very well. Hon. Eric Muchangi, before we listen to Hon. Adan Keynan.

I was keen when one of the Members spoke about one of the entities, which looks like a private institution. You have been the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Labour and when we interacted with the institution concerning child welfare, at one time it looked like a private institution....

Very well, veteran legislator, Adan Keynan. I think you were at one time the Chair of that Committee. I cannot see any more interest on this from Members who just walked in. There being no further interest, I ask the Mover to reply.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Let me join the family of Hon. Mukhongo to say pole upon the loss of a veteran MCA and politician in Bungoma, a member of FORD-Kenya Party and a respected leader. When I spoke to many of the leaders from Bungoma, I realised that they know...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise on a point of order. Now that students and teachers are in Parliament, allow me to mention that we have the national drama festivals taking place in Meru. Ordinarily, schools that qualify for drama at that level are sponsored by regional education offices of...

In Meru there is a full house of all students… That does not answer the question. How many students are there? Thousands of students.

Hon. Speaker, I thank the Chairman. On the comprehensive report about the cause of the fire, that matter still rests with him. The fire did not only affect my people; it can affect anyone. On the support for the families, the Chairman reached out. We were able to receive support...

Hon. Speaker, he needs to execute the reply.

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I must start by thanking the Chairman because he swung into action and was very helpful. On the first issue of a comprehensive report, that remains on his side, as no such report has been given. However, that is important for the good and wellness of the...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, on a point of order. Hon. Milemba, what is your point of order? Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am so disappointed with my colleague Mwalimu Orero, and the seeker of the request for statement. Promotion was a very thorough issue. Even the trade unions asked for the list...

Is the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Trade, Industry and Co-operatives in the House? In his absence then, Leader of the Majority Party will inform him.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for this joy- riding opportunity. I am sure that when the Cabinet Secretary was preparing for this question, he looked around Vihiga County. At the same time that this road was being constructed, there were three other roads in the area that I would appreciate if...

Very well. I can see many daktaris in the House, and they are also on my list but Hon. Sunkuli, you are the seconder. Proceed.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As one of the authorities from the Departmental Committee on Health mentioned earlier, many people may be hearing about the Kenya Institute of Primate Research (KIPRE) for the first time. Although established in 1958, KIPRE was domiciled in the National Museums of Kenya under the...

Maybe you will inform me later, not now. I would want to hear from him after I am done with my contribution because he is a senior expert in this area. Having domiciled KIPRE in the Ministry of Health, the institution is operating at the level of a legal notice,...

That is very positive information and what I wanted to hear. Such information enhances our capacity and the capacities of those who are listening to us. In teaching, when we conduct an experiment, we always conduct another controlled experiment to test the original hypothesis. The Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI)...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. When Hon. Wangari raised this request for statement, I got interested in this matter. Later on, I realised that the so-called Aviator and other methodologies of gambling are all over in our houses. Aviator is very well known by both kids and mamas in the village....

On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. Yes, Hon. Mwalimu. I am sorry to interrupt. I had seen the Hon. Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Health in the House. Hon. Speaker, the President pronounced himself on SHA, especially on the registration of SHA in terms of if you are...

Now, who is Mama Kipepeo? Yes, Hon. Omanyo. Proceed.

Very well. I did not hear you speak about the issue of double registration that has happened repeatedly over the years. They keep registering the same people, changing the card this year, another card next year, and another the year after that. (Question proposed) Hon. Odanga, you may proceed.

Asante sana, Mhe. Kuria Kiani kwa kutumia Kiswahili sanifu. Let us hear from Hon. Ann.

Great. There being no further interest in this particular matter, I ask the Mover to reply.

You should have also thanked me for reminding you that the registration is done every year. They have to pay money to change the card. A card cannot work in following years. It has to be renewed. When you retire back to your table and you meet with the Auditor...
