• 3 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: I really do not think there is much to debate about the amendments being proposed by the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party.

So, rather than wait for 14 days for the law to The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I rise to speak to this amendment, and especially share my ideas and thoughts on the fact that you have to make a ruling on this matter raised by the Leader of the Majority Party. I beg and persuade you to be guided by the following: That, the document before us this afternoon has gone through a process that is provided for by this Constitution. If I look at the power of this Committee that was collecting evidence and handling this particular matter, for purposes of avoidance of doubt, this Committee had the power to summon any person ... view
• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, it is this Adan who owns Rivack. The EACC pays rent to Rivack, a company that owns the Integrity Centre, whose owner is Mr. Adan. I want to know whether Members dared to further establish whether this gentleman declared interest on this Petition. This is because being an employee of Mr. Adan, he may have been acting on his instructions. As we look into this particular matter this afternoon, let us understand that we have a serious responsibility as Members of the Eleventh Parliament to protect public assets, and make sure that whatever we do is for the ... view

• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Commission Secretary. We are suggesting that they deal with the Commission Secretary for very obvious reasons. If I was to borrow from the Report of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, you will find that the Committee lacked some bit of strength in terms of expressing themselves clearly on this particular matter. I do not understand why this was left out as just an opinion and advisory because when you look at Page 54, the Report says that there is evidence on record that the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) submitted to His Excellency a list of corruption cases ... view
• 2 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I rise to make a personal statement. You will recall that sometime last year in the month of May, I proposed a Motion to this House to impeach the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Planning and Devolution. After complying with all the requirements of the law and the Standing Orders, my Motion was approved for debate in this House.
