• 11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: This is on the Insolvency Act. The reasons behind this are that the law provides for an automatic stay on the enforcement when a debtor enters into a court-supervised re-organisation procedure in order to protect secured creditors’ rights. There is need to provide clear grounds for relief from the stay in case if there is one, while setting a time limit for it. The proposed amendment seeks to ensure that the grounds are clear and broad enough in size to cover all the justifiable reasons for relief from stay as per the international best practice within the insolvency law. view
• 11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the first intent of the Bill from the Government was to protect local manufacturers. But there was a concern, not only from the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning, that the capacity for particularly pharmaceutical related bottles has not been reached by the country. What he has amended is to exclude those manufacturing pharmaceutical bottles. All the other companies that are making local bottles will have better tax rebate than those imported. The imported ones are going to be more expensive. The Chair needs to clarify that. view

Millie Odhiambo that it is also an omnibus Bill and it does not harm us if we put it as that. view

• 11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: The Prof. like Hon. Millie are the people always here with me and has asked a very valid question. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 11 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: This amendment seeks to define the building code, as the Chair has said. The Local Government Act upon which the national building code of 1968 was anchored, was repealed by the County Government Act. We want to make sure that there is harmonisation of building codes in both levels of government. The gist of it was to define the building code and ensure that building codes are not anchored in different pieces of law. The whole essence of these amendments is the ease of doing business. We want to make sure that an investor sitting in Singapore does not need ... view
