• 3 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the decision to fire was in itself an appraisal. This is an employee who has been found guilty of the allegations that I have stated in my answer. I do not know what other appraisal the hon. Member is asking for. view
• 3 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, indeed, it was proper. I followed the laws and rules as laid down. If you heard me clearly, I said we are waiting for the final report, view
