    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I beg to seek your indulgence on a few things. It is now almost one year since I brought a few amendments to various legislations and they have gone through the respective stages. Two have gone through the Budget and Appropriations Committee and they gave their nod, but I have not seen any progress up to date yet time is not on our side. One of them is on the National Construction Authority Act. We have given youths opportunity to work, but they are impended by some of the provisions in the National Construction Authority Act. I had, therefore, sought an amendment to have them exempted, and the amendment was approved, but to date… The other bit was on loitering and moving without purpose, which has landed my people into so many problems. I intended to change the Penal Code by amending some of those old colonial laws they were using to arrest people for loitering. The Constitution is very clear on matters of movement. It is a little bit sad that I have to keep on addressing some of these things. I beg to get some direction from your end. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
