• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I would urge hon. Members to listen carefully when you put the Question so that they can vote properly. I am sure they were with me, but they did not vote with me! view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. There is nothing out of order, but a matter of procedure. I thought we had agreed that, if there was a further amendment by Dr. Manduku, then we could discuss that first. I refer to page 563. I think there is an amendment by Dr. Manduku to Clause 6. There is an amendment by Dr. Manduku and I thought we would start with that. view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: I stand corrected! view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, much as I do not agree with the amendment in part (ii), I am rather concerned as to why the Minister would want to have the amendment in (a)(i), which seeks to delete the words "of good moral and intellectual standing" which appear in the original Bill. The Minister has not given us a reason as to why he is proposing this amendment. This is preposterous. It should never happen like this. He proposes the 4092 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES September 20, 2007 amendment as per the Order Paper, but does not give us an explanation as ... view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the Minister did not come up very clearly. I agree that he wants to remove these powers from himself. However, he cannot say that the Commissioner of Labour is so busy and yet he giving him special powers now. He shall also be secretary. Much as I support the idea that the Minister should have so much powers, we must now realise that you are giving the Commissioner of Labour all these powers; including the power to be the secretary of the National Labour Board. view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. Because of the time factor and the fact that the Minister is moving quite slowly, would I be in order to suggest that, procedurally, we deal with clause by clause in entirety unless there are other numerous amendments? view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, we are also going item by item as well. view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, with due respect, I am suggesting that if amendments relate to the same matter, then we deal with them together as an omniband rather than sub-clause by sub-clause, so that we can move faster. view
• 20 Sep 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, as the Minister considers what he is going to say, I want him to take note of the fact that, in fact, those judges can actually be transferred from the High Court to the Industrial Court. The question of their titles, recognition, security of tenure and those kind of things applies. We have to be very careful. When Parliament is making law, the intention of Parliament must be clear so that the drafters, when they finally do the clean up, they carry the intention of Parliament. But we do not want to make anything that ... view
