• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Yes, it is a very important name. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: I am concerned because this is an Authority which is being given the duty of managing irrigation. The CS has many other functions in many areas of the Ministry. To remove the responsibilities and take them back to the CS is now limiting the Authority’s work. It is the Authority that should get that information. To that extent, I oppose the amendment. The Authority should do this work. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Chairman, this is a good amendment but it is important to say it. The amendment is adding the PS responsible for Water to be a member. You cannot have irrigation body and exclude the PS for Water. I support. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: This amendment, in my mind, broadens the thing so much because it is related to irrigation, agriculture, finance, law or business. So, anybody with a qualification that is related to any of those, qualifies. I thought that the best would have been the way it was, that is, related to irrigation, but now we are proposing that it be related to irrigation, agriculture, finance, law or business. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: I would want to be assured that this function has been removed from the water users and now it is going to be by the CS’s regulations, whichever way the CS will bring it. The CS may still bring it to the water users. We will see it when it comes. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I think this is a very sound amendment. It is broad enough and it takes care of all the issues that may come. So, I actually support it. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Even though the previous proposed amendment talked about (f), it only served to add another proposed amendment. This particular amendment is the one which is talking about (f). So, we now have two, that is, (f) and (fa). They are not the same. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, whereas I support the amendment, I would like some point to be clarified. How far upstream does this apply? If you can interfere with the water flow and the scheme is hundreds or tens of miles away and somebody is interfering with it far upstream, does this apply? If that is the case, then it is a good amendment. I support it. But, we have to remember that some people can do it far upstream. view
• 19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: I want to take you back. If you have several components and agree with one component and disagree with others, it is better to call out each of them. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
