• 13 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, when I look through this Bill, all over the world, there is the problem of adulteration, substandard and counterfeit goods and services. However, having this institution, I think we will be able to tie down the monster and ensure the safety, health and conformity of our goods to international standards. According to the explanatory notes in this Bill, I can see the intent is to have a body that is competent to carry out specific conformity assessment tests. That is the intention of this particular Bill. Hon. Members who have spoken before me have said as ... view

• 18 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Report of JLAC. At the onset, I want to congratulate the immediate former Secretary and CEO of EACC, Halakhe Waqo. He may be succeeded by Maj. (Rtd) Twalib Abdallah Mbarak who is also from a minority group. For the first time, we are seeing the minority groups succeeding each other. However, sometimes, the leadership in institutions headed by people from majority groups is succeeded by people from the majority groups. We have seen the contribution of the minorities to this nation in a big way. Maj. (Rtd) Twalib Abdallah Mbarak ... view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I stand to support the proposed amendment by the Leader of the Majority Party. We should not legislate in vain. As we propose laws here, they must stand the scrutiny of time. The purpose of having a council is for decision and policy making in institutions. Most of those proposed to be members of the council are outsiders who are likely to have pecuniary interest when they are in the organisation. For that reason, it should be allowed to be as lean as possible but also reflect the wider interest of Government, ... view

• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, with due respect to my good friend Hon. Mbadi, I think he should oppose the Bill if he feels so. Comparing the two Bills which were passed at different points in time on the Floor of this House is misleading the House. view

• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. I rise to support the Bill. I speak with a lot of integrity because I have seen the previous Bill. When legislating in this House, we must ensure that anything good gives way to the best. As we legislate, even if there was an earlier Bill and there is tremendous improvement to it, we cannot say that the two Bills are similar. view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Pension is very important even for us in this House. As we retire in our twilight years, if there will be nobody to take care of us, something must be in place to take care of us. Pension particularly at the county level is a county business. When we discuss issues to do with counties, we must consider the two levels of government – the national Government and the county governments. When Bills appear before the Council of Governors, they must give a nod that it fits into their scheme of things. I believe the Bill is before this House ... view
