  • 30 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I support the Motion of amendment. This is a procedural Motion. If the Committee feels that there is any other Senator they feel that they should include, they should not hesitate to look for them especially those who are experienced in the area of procurement.

  • 29 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, before I give the time, I would also like to say that on the issue of riding--- view

  • 29 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, because of the so many requests that have been raised by hon. Senators, I request for three weeks. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
  • 29 Sep 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is even better that clarification has been sought here rather than seeking clarifications when I am responding. I also understand that you come from a tea growing area like me and, perhaps, that is why you are generous on this issue. view
