• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, you lumped my amendment together with that of Hon. Wario. I thought mine was a bit different. view

• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 44 be amended by inserting the following new sub-clauses immediately after sub-clause (2)— “(2A) Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1), the Service may enter into a management agreement with any person who has acquired customary rights with respect to a public forest.

• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I am not happy with the way the previous amendment has been made because Hon. Wario’s amendment was totally different from my amendment to Clause 33. I was talking about gazetted forests and Hon. Wario was talking about rural forests. view

• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: In Lerroki Plateau, there are two forest lines. There is one for the sanctuary and another one for the forest. I do not know what ‘sanctuary’ means. If the KFS wants to manage the forest, they should involve the local people because they know it better than the management committee of the Government. view
