• 9 Mar 2023 in National Assembly: Hon. Chairlady, as regards the order of the name of the Committee, instead of “Water, Blue Economy and Irrigation” I want to persuade the Chairperson that, that is just a matter of nomenclature. If you look at our Second Schedule, Blue Economy appears as the second Departmental Committee under that nomenclature and we want to retain it that way. No harm or mischief is intended. I want to request the Chairperson to accept that we call it “Blue Economy, Water and Irrigation.” It does not, in any way, interfere with its jurisdiction or mandate. It makes it tidier for naming ... view

In the first one, for the last five or six years, we have responded to developments in ICT, with a lot of laws criminalising cybersecurity and trying to almost muzzle that sector. In the last few years, we have seen many young people get employed on Tik Tok and WhatsApp. As you know, content creators earn a living in this sector. The law has not changed in tandem with those developments, and that is why I agree with the Petitioner that we should look at this law ... view
• 2 Mar 2023 in National Assembly: Secondly, my parents were teachers and are now both retired. There is a time when they were transferred to a very far-flung area in the constituency where I come from. They could not access it and yet they were being paid the same salary they were earning when they lived in an accessible area. That is why I agree with the Petitioner and the Members. They have said that we look at the classification of hardship areas holistically, not just based on one area or the other. Let us have a broader policy and very objective criteria on how to ... view
