• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. I do not intend to interject the submissions by the Seconder. However, after looking at Standing Order No.209 that gives the Select Committee on Implementation the role they are supposed to play… I am aware they may experience problems while implementing resolutions and this could be why they inform the House about the challenges they face while implementing resolutions of Committees. view

Personally, as a Member of this House and knowing that a report of any Committee once adopted becomes the property of this House, I think two wrongs do not make a right. It may be true that Kenafric Industries Limited was not asked to meet the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock, but in the Report of the Committee on Implementation they did not give the Committee opportunity to defend itself. view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker the Leader of the Minority Party is a very knowledgeable person, I would not wish to react to what he has said. view
• 11 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: As a former member of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock it may not be on record, but I wish Hon.
