• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 26 of the Bill be amended by inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (c)— The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: “(d) operation of any other written law.” view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: We are doing this because, in as much as private land is governed by a particular law straightforwardly, there are other laws which are supposed to affect the management of that particular private land. Therefore, in conversion, we must all make reference to other laws that govern issues to do with private land and ownership. view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 28 of the Bill be amended in Sub-clause (2) by deleting the word “an” appearing at the end of paragraph (e) and substituting therefor the word “and”. This is just a grammatical error and does not require a lot of argument. view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I was reading the amendment. Indeed, a person who has been given some rights to practise something or to do some work on community land may decide to abuse that privilege. I consider this to be an additional ground under which the community can decide to deny him the right that he has already been given. Therefore, for the purpose of an individual abusing the rights of many, these are additional grounds that we can afford to put in this Bill to enrich it. I have no problem with it. view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: I support the additional amendment. view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 29 of the Bill be amended− (a) in sub-clause (4) by inserting the words “or” at the end of paragraph (a); and (b) in sub-clause (6) by deleting the words “one year” and substituting therefor the words “six months”. view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: The amendment seeks to give a proper grammatical flow as well as to give a more lenient imprisonment penalty other than being too punitive. view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. We have done wide consultations, even with Hon. Chachu. As a Committee, we realised that these offences are not too grave, even in the Penal Code. That is why we reduced the period from one year to half a year. Even in the Penal Code, these are not very serious criminal issues. view
• 20 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I am taking offence with the words “traditional community”. We have defined what a community land should be. It does not have to be traditional because there are other definitions. So, by saying “traditional community”, what is Hon. Mwadime trying to infer? There are a number of other factors that make up a community. When you talk of a traditional community, are we out of the definition of “community” provided in the Bill. He needs to explain further. view
