On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. What is the point of order, Hon. (Dr.) Makali Mulu? You know I respect the Minority Whip, and I wish he could…

I am on my feet and wish you could sit down. I respect the Majority Whip a lot, but I think it is better to get the records straight. When you associate an MP with accountability of the NG-CDF, I think we are sending the wrong signal out there. MPs...

I asked two specific Questions. I am just paraphrasing it. You asked whether the G-to-G arrangement is being sufficiently protected from abuse. Exactly. You are right.

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. On my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Kitui Central, I take this opportunity to sincerely convey condolences to the family of Hon. Kulow, the people of Banissa and the people of Mandera County for this big loss. Hon. Speaker, we...

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I just want to add my voice to this important debate. There are some fundamental questions that we need to ask ourselves as leaders in this country. This is the only Assembly where every part of this country is represented. If you mention...

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. Pursuant to Standing Order 43 on behalf of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association Kenya Branch, I wish to make a Statement regarding Commonwealth Day, 2023.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I support the Committee in annulling the regulations. I just want to raise two issues which to me are critical and even if the other reasons were not there, these two would kill these regulations. One of them is the issue of public participation. The...

Thank you very much Hon. Speaker. I want to thank the petitioner for raising this Petition in the House. The petitioner raises very fundamental issues relating to that scheme. I think …

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I was just saying that even as our Committee looks at this Petition, there are two fundamental issues they need to look at. One of them is the issue of a monitoring and evaluation framework. The reason why the petitioner is claiming that there is underutilisation...
