• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Are you asking that the Bill be deferred? view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: You are out of order, Dr. Khalwale because that is not what the hon. Member is saying. The hon. Member has agreed to sit with the Minister. He has asked for a deferral in order to sit down with the Minister. He is not giving or ceding the authorship of the Bill nor the credit. The Chair is obliged to agree with him if what he wants would advance the course of getting a Bill that addresses the issue comprehensively. So, my ruling is that this matter will be deferred to a period that will enable the Departmental Committee concerned ... view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Order, Dr. Khalwale. That is precisely what the Minister is doing. He is not taking over the Bill. He simply wants time to consult with the hon. Member and share the information so that the hon. Member may know how to utilise it. I think that is a very reasonable request and I, therefore, order that this Order be deferred to such time as the two camps agree that it appears on the Order Paper. view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Hon. Members, that concludes the business on the Order Paper. Therefore, the House stands adjourned until tomorrow, 14th July, 2010, at 9.00 a.m. view

If you look at the public galleries, there are a lot of young students who are in this House today, and who are keen to know what steps the Minister of Health takes to ensure that their health is maintained and that when they fall sick, immediate steps are taken. Nevertheless, given the hostility shown to the school by the parents, clearly there must be some suspicions regarding the circumstances under which this child died. Has the Assistant Minister taken steps as is ... view
• 1 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the presence of armed police officers has not stopped cheating in examinations. Every year, you give a list of names of students alleged to have been involved in cheating, despite the presence of armed policemen in the classrooms. Would it not be wise to consider keeping these armed policemen away from the classrooms during examinations? They could very well be contributing to incidents of cheating that we have been talking about after every examination results. view
• 1 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 1 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Since the Minister has provided the answer and we know the tradition is to ensure that he takes maximum time in answering. Could he summarise so that we can interrogate this Question? Otherwise, he will read for the next one hour. view
• 1 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister says that this year, they have appointed a consultancy. Are you satisfied that there is need for a consultancy on whom you are going to spend a lot of funds instead of giving these funds directly to the schemes?
