In the absence of a provision in the ... view

Even if we have 10 or 20 more people speaking, they would all be confirming the same. So, I ... view
• 4 Mar 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I thank the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee for the time they have spent on this BPS and indeed the processing thereof. I know it has taken them time going into the nights. They articulated most of the issues. I do not want to spend a lot of time because the specifics have actually been very well articulated.
