• 28 May 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to plead with you that a very dangerous trend is being set in this House. Two weeks ago, I was in the Appointment Committee and we debated sixteen names here without a report being before the House properly. There is no hurry in what we are doing, but let us do something for posterity. We shall be judged right. These Committees have had a chance view
• 28 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion for Adjournment. We have been here for a couple of months now and I know the new hon.

Member in order to insinuate that the Kavuludi Commission is not giving the Inspector General (IG) a chance, while the work of both of them is properly and clearly spelt out in the Commission?
