Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead this House that in some of the years the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) got more from the Treasury, while it is very clear under the Act that it is not less than 2.5 per cent? I was a Member of the previous Committee and we negotiated for 2.5 per cent. Is he in order to mislead the House? view
• 29 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I said earlier, I was a Member of the CDF Committee. In Financial Year 2006/2007, we were allocated 2.5 per cent, and we sat with the Ministry of Finance when we realised that it had collected more money than it had estimated.

• 27 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: ago, the Assistant Minister claimed that this matter was in court. You ruled that this matter must be brought to your office in advance to make a ruling on whether or not it touched on the rule of subjudice .

• 22 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Minister in order to avoid answering the question, which I will repeat?
