• 23 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Therefore, Hon. Speaker I would seek your guidance as to how, if the time comes, such a Bill coming from the Senate, with the provisions of Article 114 of the Constitution is in actual fact a money Bill that has not originated from this House. view
• 23 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: So, I seek your guidance as to how we are likely to treat that matter even when the Bill is referred to this House. As I said, the only eligible Bill to be called the Division of Revenue Bill 2019 has been published by the National Assembly and hopefully if the House Business Committee (HBC) allows in the course of next week after we are done with getting views from the public and we table our Report, it should emanate from this House. view

• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also rise to support the Motion. As I support it, for those who have been with me from the 11th Parliament, I am one of the Members who have endeavoured to avoid engaging in debate between ourselves and the other House.

• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I appreciate that you also appreciate that I was giving that as an example to illustrate how the Senate has abdicated its role in overseeing county governments.

• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: mandate to determine whether a Bill being introduced to the House has any monetary implications. Therefore, when Bills are introduced to this House or the Senate, it is only the Speakers of the respective Houses of Parliament who have the exclusive mandate to determine whether they are money Bills or not. The use of Article 114 and our Standing Orders is not exclusive to Bills from the Senate. Members of this House sponsor Bills and bring legislative proposals every now and then. In fact, after the budget process, as the Budget and Appropriations Committee, we are considering legislative proposals from ... view
