Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44 (2) (c) , I rise to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Housing, Urban Planning and Public Works regarding the implementation of the Affordable Housing Programme. Since the enactment of the Affordable Housing Act,...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill, which will shape the future of our country. I want to make two general observations. The Finance Bill is attempting to raise the highest amount of money that we have ever sought to...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I believe I am very accurate because the money we are seeking to raise through this Finance Bill is Ksh4.8 trillion.

There are other components, but I am addressing the matter in its broader context. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I need your protection. (Loud consultations) Member for Makueni, do you wish to be informed by Hon. Wamboka? Of course not. Oh sorry, yes! (Laughter)

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am very happy that you are listening to me. It means that I am making a point. My point is very simple. In summary, any Finance Bill must be contextualised. Contextualisation means conducting an analysis to address issues arising from the prevailing and changing...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The second point is on VAT on digital financial platforms like fuliza and others. Most of the poor people access money from these platforms. They are not included in the formal banks. Raising money from these financial platforms is denying poor people access to financial...

Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44 (2) (c) , I rise to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Blue Economy, Water and Irrigation regarding the status of implementation of the Thwake Multipurpose Dam Project. The Thwake Multipurpose Dam Project along the...

Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44 (2) (c) , I rise to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Blue Economy, Water and Irrigation regarding the status of implementation of the Thwake Multipurpose Dam Project. The Thwake Multipurpose Dam Project along the...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My first point was a point of order.

Thank you. Now that Kenyans have spoken loudly and clearly that the context has changed and we no longer want this centre, what is his recommendation? Do the wishes of Kenyans become irrelevant or they can dynamically change? Or once something is passed in this Parliament, is it passed in...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also support this proposal. It is quite progressive, bearing in mind that this institution will fill a capacity gap in an area where we have none. I do not think we currently have any institution specialised in issues of human development sciences. Having such...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to this very important amendment Bill by Hon. Oluoch. It is actually very disheartening that we are discussing the very poor who are unable to access quality education. In these so-called APBET schools, we find that the learning environment does...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have worked in slums. The nightmare of finding space to build schools is the main reason these institutions are not recognised. The schools are hanging somewhere. We need to be bold and have this amendment. As we create space for affordable housing, let us...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to make my contribution to this important Bill. It is important that it is on the Floor of the House. The TSC has messed up the teachers. The noble profession that most people admired is being messed up. 11th March...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, and I am from Makueni Constituency. I also wish to add my voice to this very important Bill by Hon. Donya. The amendment is timely because, when we look at the Sexual Offences Act, there is a gap that it did not address. This creates...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker. What is out of order, Member for Makueni Constituency, Hon. Suzanne Kiamba? Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have been sitting here listening to responses to statements, but I am very disturbed. I requested for a statement on 13th March from the...

Hon. Temporary Speaker, we are almost closing this Session, but you have ordered that I get the response in one week. Am I being assumed? Three sessions have lapsed without a response, and now you have said that I will get a response within a week. Will this happen online,...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I am not Hon. Nyenze; I am Hon. Suzanne Kiamba from Makueni. 24th September 2025 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 9 I also wish to add a word to the statement that was sought by Hon. Bensuda and responded to by the Committee. I appreciate their input...
