• 27 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This was the summary I was given by the Clerk of the Committee to report to the House. I undertake that I will go back, check what the Member has said and report back to the House. view
• 27 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The Member is right. That was legislative proposal No.1 which was to do with the Elevators Safety Authority Bill, 2015, whose maturity date was 7th September, 2015. The challenge we got as a Committee was the vastness of the proposal. It is seeking to establish a whole board and it had to go through a few consultations with the Executive. If I am not wrong, the Chairman approached Hon. Washiali about two weeks ago and they have been talking to understand to what extent they want to handle it. The Member is right to complain because ... view

The Controller of Budget Bill, 2015, is very nice which gives rise to the enactment of Article 228 of the Constitution.

• 24 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: that there shall be the Office of Controller of Budget. The Office of the Controller of Budget in the Constitution will be implemented as per the Act that we are talking about today. As I debate this Bill, I wish to recognise that the Office of the Controller of Budget is an independent office.
