• 21 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the import is exactly as was explained by the Chair. I was trying to bring congruence between the two agencies, which is the Financial Reporting Center which we approved the Director on the Floor of the House but then, on further consultations, they said that we move from the Public Service Commission, where the Director in charge of the Financial Reporting Center is actually appointed and brought to the House. To maintain congruence, it is best to drop the amendments. view

• 21 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: (c) Information relating to that person’s financial, family or private affairs, where required, may be revealed, or; (d) The privacy of a person’s communication may be investigated or otherwise interfered with. This flies across the provisions of the Constitution, Article 24(3), which requires that a court order be obtained prior to any of these limitations to an individual’s rights are carried out. Hence, the moving of the amendment. view
• 21 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairperson. We cannot trivialise this issue. We are all here because we are concerned about our great country and the crimes that can be committed. Nothing in suspicion can occasion one to search your property without any court order, seize your possessions and circulate your financial information to people. On the basis of suspicion, people are kidnapped. You cannot do that. The privacy of a person is important. As Hon. Junet has said, these are fundamental rights in the Constitution. We must safeguard life and livelihoods. That cannot be left to the whims of one ... view
