• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I agree with the proposal from the President. Even as I agree, I get concerned when I hear the Committee lamenting that they could not pick up on those things before they went to the President. This House makes laws. Such glaring gaps which are identified on the other side do not say good things about us. We need to improve. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Mover of this amendment should explain to us why we are deleting the word “schedule” and substituting it with the word “Act” because this is still part of the whole Bill. He has said that he is tidying it up. If it is just a matter of cleaning it, I support the amendment. view

• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I want to agree with Hon. Kaluma. After your appeal is declined, it means that you have been released to go to any other country. I do not think we really need to have such a person for three months in the country. It is better we have it at 60 days so that they also see the urgency to apply to those other countries. Otherwise, if we allow them a lot of time, they will just relax and continue hanging around which is not good for the country. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I think Hon. Millie also needs to save us a bit of time because it looks like she does not have the Order Paper. I beg her to have the Order Paper so that she moves what is in the Order Paper. Her computer seems to have more than what we are seeing. We are discussing what is in the Order Paper. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, his amendment has two parts. One, we passed, and Part II which Millie does not seem to have in her computer, the Chair of the Committee has proposed a rejection. You need to put the Question again so that we get it right. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Even as I support this amendment, we were supposed to define this “reasonable time” because if you just say reasonable time, it is just like leaving it open. The fact that this person is already at the transit centre which is not a good place, it would have been better if we define that. Despite that, I support the amendment. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I want to I agree with the Committee. Clause 28(a) that we passed talks about the rights of refugees as captured in the UN Convention. If those rights are clearly stipulated, I do not see the need for new sub-clause 1A because it might be misused. I want to urge her to drop this one. Thank you. view
• 23 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity. Allow me to join my colleagues in conveying my sincere condolences to the family and friends of Hon. Waititu. I got to know this great man when we joined this Parliament in 2013. As my colleagues have said, Hon. Wakapee was a very generous man. Anytime you met him, you always felt like you have known him for many years. I remember when he came back from India; he became a champion on matters on cancer. How it has turned out that he has died just two years after coming back ... view
• 23 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to add my voice to this important Bill. The main object of this Bill is to give effect to the Constitution in order to promote all forms of national and cultural expression through literature, arts, traditional celebrations, science, communication, information, mass media, publications, libraries and other cultural heritage. view
