"content": " Hon. Speaker, I do not intend to escalate debate on this matter because it is straightforward. I just want to report, again, that on that fateful Thursday, Hon. Chonga called me while he was at the Firearm Licensing Board offices in Industrial Area. I was crying literally. This is a very serious issue. It may look small, until it gets to you as a person. Ordinarily, I do not talk about security of Members or personal security. However, it behoves public officers that whenever they take any action, be it administrative or otherwise, they cite a particular law. Under the Firearms Act, the Chief Firearms Licensing Officer cannot wake up one morning and withdraw somebody’s licence, leave alone a gun because anyway it belongs to the person who owns it. The Chief Licensing Officer has got a duty under the law, the Firearms Act and, indeed, the Constitution to give reasons why he is cancelling a licence for a gun holder."
