• 23 Jun 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I start by commending you. If you allow me, may I make a few comments on the ruling that you have made. Article 115(1)(b) is very clear and explicit. It starts by saying that the Bill will be referred to Parliament. The interpretation of Parliament now has become very clear. Parliament refers to both the National Assembly and the Senate.
