On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir.

Yes, I indeed want to be President of the Republic of Kenya. When I become one, things like this will not happen because I will have separated the National Treasury from the Ministry of Finance and it will be run professionally. We shall enter an era of balanced budgets. There...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issue of limits of judicial authority on independent institutions has been settled. I think we have seen some precedents that have been presented to us. Secondly, we need to make a distinction between procedural fairness and procedural technicality. Procedural fairness demands that we give the governor...

Yes, since he is on the Finance and Budget Committee.

I thank Sen. Eddy Oketch. If that report was there, it would have saved me the heated exchange with the Senate Majority Leader. I said that I cannot trust intention. I can only trust what has been tabled and put before the House. We hope that those intentions will be...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to comment on the statement on the state of education and the state of healthcare in the country. We resumed our sittings yesterday. During recess, we lost 21 children at the age of 12 to an unfortunate fire at Endarasha Hillside Academy. On...

As I said, the product that you are calling diaspora remittance is human capital. When we went to the United States, in the State of Minnesota, we found highly trained Kenyan doctors running the medical services in that country. That is how it used to be in the past. They...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, there was an inconsistency between the verbal interpretation and whatever we saw written on the screen, particularly within that clip that relates to bribe of the Senate.

In the first instance, the translator used the word to “corrupt” the Senate. In the second instance, he used the word to “bribe” the Senate. Perhaps, I will leave it to the Senators to confirm whether those are synonyms.

Bw. Naibu Spika, ninashukuru kwa kunipa fursa hii. Vile unavyojua, mimi ndiye mwenye boma kama Seneta wa Kaunti ya Homa Bay. Tunafanya kazi vizuri na Sen. Beatrice Ogola. Anafanya kazi vizuri chini yangu nami ninafanya kazi vizuri juu yake. (Laughter)

Sen. Methu, kindly proceed.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, first allow me to congratulate you for your resilience. The Communication being referred to was made at exactly midnight, and that is a sign of the commitment of this House. You were a bit lenient in your Communication. I do not think that such conduct should just...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the person with the duty and obligation to be a judge on whether the substantiation is within the Standing Orders and the Rules and Procedures of Parliament is the Speaker. The House does not take a vote, and the House does not have an opinion. This is...

Sen. M. Kajwang’, what is your point of order? Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am rising on a point of information to Sen. Sifuna, if he accepts. Then you need permission from the Senator. Sen. Sifuna, would you wish to be informed?
