• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I want to seek a clarification on what the missing words were. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I can see Clause 10 (1)(d) is on communication and (1)(e) is on distribution. They are significantly different. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I think it is okay to include dramatic works but the difference between technical and technological protection is not clear to me. Something tells me it may be quite significant but I do not know what really the difference is. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Technically is like repairing something that has broken down. That is technical but if you are talking of technological, then you are talking of applications, innovations and many things that come in. So, I think it is looking at technological innovations. I think it makes sense to me. view

• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, there are two different organisations. There is the board that he is talking about, which is an overall board of a parastatal. For that, if you look at the Act, there is educational requirement, but what they are talking about are small organisations that have been formed and are managed by the bigger board. It is these organisations whose CEOs we are talking about. I find it acceptable that at that level, they can organise themselves. If the parastatal has that requirement, it protects it adequately. I would let this part stay. view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, whereas I support this amendment, there is one major introduction I have seen of “dramatic works”, which I have a problem with in terms of the word and I could be guided. It sounds more like an adjective rather than naming the acts of drama. I think there should be a definition in this clause. I am particularly more concerned because musical work has been clearly defined while for dramatic work, I have not seen any definition. Maybe the Chair or the Members of the Committee can enlighten me on that, if they really do not ... view
• 24 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I would have wished to have an inclusion of the definition of ‘dramatic works’ like has been done for ‘musical work’. It would probably be something like ‘dramatic work means work of drama irrespective of drama quality and includes work graphic’. Even drama can be in graphic form. But if we cannot do it now, then, probably that is something that will come later. I think it may have been necessary. I would not push hard because the context is understood even without the definition, but it should have been nice to have a definition. view
• 5 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I think we are missing the whole point. There are two main issues here. There is the health aspect of this problem and then there is the trade and taxes and the illicit issues. I voluntarily attended the meetings as a friend of the Committee and I share some of the sentiments that have come here. I came to the conclusion that the important aspect will be lost and it looks like it has been lost. I say that because the question that Hon. Lesuuda asked is one of the issues I raised when I was ... view
