• 29 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. One thing that is disturbing is that the answer that the Minister has given is totally different from what was given to me in writing.

• 23 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for that guidance. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, one of the mandates and functions of Parliament is to hold regular discussions or to have audience with the nation on the various issues that involve and touch on the population; namely, issues that pose problems are contentious in nature. It is important that we, as parliamentarians, continue nurturing the spirit of listening to what our people, who we represent in this House, are saying outside there.
