Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Hon. Edith Nyenze, as per Standing Order 44 (2) (c) , on the 21st of August 2024, requested for a statement on the employment status of P1 teachers who had upgraded their education with a view to being absorbed as Junior Secondary School teachers. Hon....

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I agree with Hon. Nyenze. In the education sector, we have opportunities that are forgone. If TSC directed that the teachers upgrade, get a diploma certificate and are back and yet there is no advantage gained, then it is not proper. Since the teachers gained the pedagogical...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. First, I commend the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock, led by Hon. (Dr) Mutunga, for bringing this Bill which is long overdue. This is the Bill that the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock of the 12th Parliament, deliberated upon and moved around the...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support Hon. Mbui on this Motion. Regarding the issue of CBC, I will just give a very short brief emanating out of a taskforce from Prof. Douglas Odhiambo in 2012. The Odhiambo Taskforce was trying to align education with the new Constitution....

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to congratulate our Olympic team. Our team won 11 medals, which is a great honour for this country. The athletes shone from 1968 in Mexico, to now in Paris. If there is any good name Kenya has earned, it is from the athletes....

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The issues raised by the Member are very weighty and important. We will bring back a statement from the Teacher Service Commission in two weeks. What did you say? I said the issues she has raised are very weighty and of national importance. We shall invite...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Division of Revenue (Amendment) Bill. This very important Bill appropriates revenue across the two levels of government as per the Constitution. The Constitution is very clear on how to share revenue between the two levels of government, or what we...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Report by the Departmental Committee on Health. Dr. Patrick Amoth has shown that he served with integrity, dignity and commitment to work. In fact, during the COVID-19 pandemic, he showed that he was capable of giving a lot of technical...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I echo what Hon. Kemei has just said. As a farmer and as their representative, it is illegal and illogical for one to tell a farmer to supply cane to a particular miller and yet, he has not even participated in the farming activities himself....

Hon. Temporary Chairlady, what my colleague, Hon. Didmus Barasa, has said is quite true. This Bill appears to be looking at the miller as the main person. The core person in the sugar industry is the farmer. When we have a Bill that tries to protect millers at the expense...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. That is a very pertinent question. As the Departmental Committee on Education, we are seized of the matter. The Principal Secretary, the CEO of the Universities Funding Board (UFB) and the CEO of the Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) will appear before the Committee on Thursday....

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support these Supplementary Budget Estimates. This is a very important Motion that comes at a time when we are going through some very serious economic and social problems in our country. I thank the Chairman, Budget and Appropriations Committee who….

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have a lot of issues to put across. First and foremost, we are having this Supplementary Budget at an unprecedented time. First, it comes at a time when the Finance Bill, 2024, was constitutionally rejected. Now the House has to reconsider the Appropriations Bill,...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. That is why I am pinpointing the areas so that when we get to the Committee of the whole House, we can propose some amendments. I am alerting the Chairperson about the areas which need urgent intervention. Already, we have made commitments on the CBAs...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Motion on the adoption of this Report. I also thank the Committee for coming up with such an informative and detailed Report on public projects. The Office of the Auditor-General is very important. It is important for this House and...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, there is a lot of misconception. In these very difficult political times, Kenyans tend to believe everything that is on social media to the detriment of the nation. I want to say that Members of Parliament have no official or any other role in the NG-CDF, other...

I rise to support this Bill. First of all, I commend the co-sponsor and the Senate for coming up with such a very progressive Bill, which is tailored to the to the child parent. Many people in this country do not know about the existence of child-parents. Those are underage...
