Default No debate on Finance ministry: Do it at your own peril - 07-04-2008, 03:06 AM

When the pay slips stop coming forth to you MPs we will know how much gravitas and conviction is in your coconuts. We hope that it is not political expediency.
MPs seem to be acting out of emotions and not out of the laws that they claim to make.
Even a child can do and behave in the same way. If the law is silent on what you want to do, either make the law for the good of the country or just keep quiet. If you want us to resort to jungle politics it is as easy as taking a deep breathe.

Blah Blah Blah, procedure was not followed and there must be consequences period. This mutura accounting is unacceptable, he is an ACCOUNTANT for the love of christ, he should be held accountable.

i pray you arent convinced that MPs pay checks can stop because of the thievery actions of a one Mr Kimunya. the country cannot be held hostage by one person. if we fought Kibaki and won, who is Kimunya? the collective will of Kenyans must prevail

Uhuru added: "I don’t want to say whether Kimunya is guilty or not, what am saying is the manner in which he is put to mob justice without getting facts. We need to follow due process. We need to put evidence first and thereafter give a verdict whether to take him to jail or not."

Orengo argued given Parliament’s frustration of business brought forward by the minister, and because his assistants do not have the requisite powers bestowed on him by the constitution, the Government was in a state of paralysis.

"We are in a crisis, the Finance docket cannot operate without a minister … in a vacuum. The minister is gazetted and empowered by law to sign contracts on behalf of the Government even outside the country with donors and trading partners."

Citing examples from the constitution, Orengo argued the Interpretation and General Provisions Act clearly defines the duties of the Finance minister and Treasury: "The Finance minister has direct management powers over the Treasury, the Consolidated Fund, its control and execution, collection of revenue and authorised expenditure exercised through Parliament. Without these powers we are in a crisis," Orengo explained.

"Not even the President has direct and constitutional powers over Consolidated Fund and the Treasury… it is the Finance Minister," Orengo pointed out.
