• 9 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when this Question was called out in this House either the Minister or myself were in. However, somebody answered on our behalf and I was given this answer today. I have discussed with Mr. Imanyara before the beginning of this sitting.

• 9 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do realize the urgency involved when it is a Question by Private Notice. However, as a result of the circumstances that I have just mentioned, I request that we are given up to Tuesday, next week. view

• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the request by the hon. Member is genuine. But since this issue cuts across two Ministries, I am going to consult with my counterpart in the Ministry of Education so that we consider it.
