• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I am seeking a clarification. Let us get a clarification on whether the Chairman of a session is entitled to vote in a Division. If he is, I have no problem. view
• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the import of the tax was obviously to control the flooding of second hand spare parts into the country, whose origins are not known. I have listened to the people and I am happy to withdraw the tax and support this amendment. view

• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to October 16, 2007 PARLIAENTARY DEBATES 4489 oppose the deletion of Clause 4 because it was passed by the House. The only clauses that were deleted were 11 and 28. But Clause 4 was actually passed by this House. We cannot delete it in Clause 1! view
• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, could I just clarify something? The clauses the Committee wanted to delete - which are 11, 28, 73, 74 and 75 - were deleted by the House. So, they are actually not part of the Bill. When we come to Clause 1, they will not even be a matter for consideration anyway. This exercise is already overtaken by events - I mean the whole amendment by the Committee. That is because Figure 4 is now being deleted. The others have already been deleted. So, they are not part of the Bill, anyway! view
• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the amendments are of no consequence. I would like to ask the Committee to withdraw them in good faith because they are not of any use. Then, I can move my amendment to Clause 1. view
• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 1 of the Bill be amended by inserting new paragraphs immediately after paragraph (c) as follows - (cc) sections 7(bb), on the 1st October, 2007; (ccc) section 7(bbb) and 7(cc), on 4th October, 2007. This was on the Order Paper on Tuesday but for some reason, it was inadvertently left out in the printing today. The House has just passed the implementation of the Excise Tax on plastics. We came to this House and had changed the date from 1st July, 2007 to 1st October, 2007. This amendment is ... view
• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, on the plastics it is from 1st October, 2007, which is what we had promised. On the spirits, it is from today when this House has passed. So, that will be from 16th October, 2007. view
• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the new rates take effect from when it has been adjusted by the House; today. But for the plastics, we had given an undertaking in this House that the rate will begin from 1st October, 2007, and not 1st July, 2007. So, anything on plastics has not been effected. In terms of Section (ccc), the date will be 16th October, 2007, which is today. The new rate will take effect from when it has been amended. It is something that will be fixed at editing but for clarity and so that the House knows, this ... view
• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, all the others take effect from 1st July, 2007, and has been taking place. But for this particular one, it is--- view
