• 8 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me ask the question: Can we have it authoritatively stated that the Minister will continue recruiting even at the level of those administrative units that have been declared districts even though we know that the High Court has said that some of them are illegal? We want that authoritative statement from the Minister. view
• 8 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. As the Assistant Minister gets more information on this Question, it would be useful for him to also tell us the criteria for the recruitment of the Commissioner of Police and if he is satisfied that a whole Commissioner of Police can also be--- view

• 8 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance for his Statement. However, I would like to table the Report of the Privatization of State Enterprises by the Government of Thailand, which is on-going.

• 8 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I listened very carefully to hon. M. Kilonzo, Senior Counsel, when he was presenting his case before this House. I want to invite Mr. Speaker to see that in the most important aspect of his presentation, he failed to discharge the evidential burden that is upon his shoulders. If you look at Standing Order 80(4), it says:- “A Member alleging that a matter is sub-judice shall provide evidence to show that paragraphs (2) and (3) are applicable.” Mr. Speaker, Sir, Paragraph 3 says that the proceedings must be active. What we expected is not just a filed ... view
• 8 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am guided by your ruling. I would like to say that in deciding this matter, because the rules allow you to exercise Sub-Rule 1 (precedence and the mood of the nation), I beg that you find that this House has not been supplied with any evidence to show that these matters are active before the court. I will not repeat all the other arguments that have been placed before you. view
• 3 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is very unfortunate that a Member of this House, hon. Mutula Kilonzo, can try to come in between the exercise of the legitimate powers of a Committee of this House. The powers that the Committee on Delegated Legislation is trying to exercise are clearly spelt out in Standing Order No.197. In particular, it will look at Standing Order No.197(2).

Was the act of appointing the Director of the KACC ... view
