• 18 Jun 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 18 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we were discussing legal issues. In fact, we were consulting the senior legal counsel, Sen. Wetangula, on the rights of the minority in a company set up and I cited the case of Ford vs Abbot as enshrined in the principles of the company law--- view
• 18 Jun 2019 in Senate: That is not noise. I went further to cite other decisions in that support. If she heard that discussion, she would have appreciated it. We do not make noise but give substance. view
• 11 Jun 2019 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 11 Jun 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is he correct to allude that Sen. Kasanga walked in the Chamber with no shoes and that she was mentally incapacitated? view
• 11 Jun 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to also add my voice. I support my sister, Sen. Kasanga, on this Bill. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 11 Jun 2019 in Senate: Like most of my colleagues have said, I support it. However, I need to state that many of the factors have been given by my colleagues touching on the wide spectrum of early retirement, where we know persons who are not ready or well counseled and are retired, go into depression.

This Parliament also needs to have counselors who can counsel persons with a view that they ... view
• 11 Jun 2019 in Senate: We also have another range in terms of people who have divorced. Divorces really hit hard to the family mantle. We are told that most times, it is the children who suffer when parents separate or divorce. That is also another area which requires counselling. We appreciate that students who fail examinations or do not attain academic pursuits also fall into this category. Once again, this aspect has been brought forth by failure or our African social strata, where old institutions are no longer followed. You then find that mentoring young people is a far away cry. view
• 11 Jun 2019 in Senate: As a Christian and, probably, with Muslim members, I did not hear the previous Senators who spoke also mentioning a typical kind of mental disorder which is biblically caused by evil spirits. Whereas we are seeing that to be of necessity, the Bill may not have touched on this and what happened to such people. We are aware that evils spirits beget special delivery by pastors or priests of churches. That is also another complex area which Sen. Kasanga needs to mention. view
• 11 Jun 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the other area which I did not get clearly touches on Clause 3(d), which deals with access to medical insurance, where it is made mandatory for them to ensure persons of such mental status are insured. From a legal perspective, I was wondering if, indeed, insurance law is in a special category of the law of contract, which is known to be a wager or a game. How do you enforce a contractual obligation on the part of an institution which wants to make profit? Maybe we can bring forth the issue of people of such ... view
