Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Muslims in Luanda, a good Eid Mubarak . They are our people; they have always stood with us when we are enjoying our Christian holidays and we want to wish them well tomorrow.

Thank you, we are together. That is what I have seen. We are in concurrence. I was also talking about the tenure of six years and the fact that they will provide continuity because governors have a term of five years; twice. A new governor coming in should get an update of the county government’s operations from the Office of the Attorney General. So, I would be supporting the clause of six years and not five or any other term. But not more than six years because then the new governor can have a chance to appoint a new attorney ...

On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I think the issues raised by Hon. T.J. Kajwang’ were very strong. Without losing the spirit he had my feeling is that we should retain what he had whether we have interest or not. But, interest is a must for everybody who is in Parliament. Members have to contribute to issues they have researched on and are very knowledgeable about and may leave those they have not researched on. But, back to Hon. T. J. Kajwang’s argument, the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill brings very substantive amendments or changes in law. The ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I thank the mediation team for good work done. From the report given by the leader, it was very cordial. That is what we should be able to hear because the intentions of these mediations should be to develop a holistic good law for the country and not to show supremacy battles. I also thank 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.

because what they have come up with is a general policy that affects all farmers worldwide. The economics of Livingstone and Ord talk about fluctuating prices of agricultural products each year. Each time they produce more, the prices go down and the following year, the same happens. So this is a safeguard for the farmers who are producing these agricultural crops. More importantly, I would want to urge those Members who will be picked for other mediation sessions with the Senate to go there with an open eye. I want to particularly make mention about the Division of Revenue Bill ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to contribute to this Bill by identifying three areas. One is the Merchant Shipping Act. Like already indicated by earlier speakers, the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill or the omnibus as we talked about it in the morning, is being used to sneak in certain laws, which will advantage certain groups of people, maybe business people or companies that have vested interest in certain areas. On this particular Act, the powers that should be vested in the institution of Parliament are being surrendered to a Cabinet Secretary who can change it anytime. Therefore, from ...

defines how a worker – because these judges are simply workers- should take and proceed for leave. Therefore, this again will be interference with another arm of Government. Hon. Speaker, with those many remarks, I want to support but I look forward to these amendments being put forward by other Members and I. Thank you.
