10 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
Basically, he is doing that. Hon. Millie, listen to me. I have taken a lot of time in scrutinising amendments. It says that Clause 18 of the Bill be amended in Paragraph (b) by deleting the words “and minutes of the approval of the list by the party election board” appearing in the proposed new Subsection (2) and substitute therefore the words “in accordance with the prescribed regulations and the relevant constitution of the party.” Initially, you were talking about minutes of the party and you are referring to the constitution of the party. What are you actually doing? You ...

5 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
This afternoon I did lay a Paper from the National Government Constituencies Development (NG-CDF) Board containing a list of nominees to 80 NG-CDF committees that have been referred to the Committee on NG-CDF for consideration. I wish to draw the attention of the Members to the fact that from previous experience, the Committee has noted that this list of nominees sometimes usually contains errors. The said errors include indication of the wrong gender, the category that a particular nominee represents as well as failure to indicate the official names of nominees, among others. So, once it is gazetted, we find ...

5 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriation Committee has just walked into the House. Yesterday, you made it very clear that if people want to consult - whether they are pro-reggae or anti-reggae - they have places from where they can consult. He is really disturbing me. He should go and use the facility. We want Members, whom laws did not pass through their committee, to understand this: You cannot just come now and want to disrupt the whole session of the House. Clauses 4, 5 and 6 of the Bill seek to provide for amendment of Sections ...
