Speaker, I kindly urge you the following: The Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs is made up of experienced men and women who can handle this matter effectively. I can assure the Hon. Speaker that we are handling it. I kindly urge you not to let us escalate the debate to another level. Let us leave it where it is. view

• 30 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. You have said it right. The issue that was raised by Hon. Kaluma is very fundamental. The House is asking you to give clarity on what you, all other Members of the House and I know as obvious - one of the responsibilities of this House in budget-making. That should be very clear to all Members. The problem that we have now, which Hon. Kaluma has brought up, is what happens if those in charge of the “purse” of the nation decide on their own without regard to Parliament or the law. One cannot fault the ... view
• 30 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: being interfered with and eroded by the Treasury on behalf of the Executive. The Executive is in effect telling the Judiciary: “You will operate as and when we want you to.” Is that what we want as Parliament? You are being asked to state the obvious for those who may not know, that it is so obvious. The process of budget-making solely belongs to this House. If there is need for this country to apply austerity measures, be it through Parliament, the Executive or the Judiciary, those measures must come back to this House for us to deliberate them, through ... view

• 10 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The issue that has been raised by Hon. Pukose is very fundamental. From my recollection, there has been no precedent in the National Assembly on that issue. It is coming up for the first time. I also agree with your ruling and it is quite in order. Some of the Members in this House are familiar with the decision of the Court of Appeal that you have referred to, but not all Members are familiar with it. Since it is going to set a precedent in the House, my humble request is that you issue that ... view
• 10 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: it is likely to arise again in the future unless this communication from you is made clearly for all Members to understand. Thank you. view
• 6 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, the “A” in my surname may make somebody think I am a female, but I can assure you that I am male. view

• 6 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to associate myself with the Leader of the Majority Party, but I want to look at it from a legal point of view. The directive was not just monopolistic but also in bad taste. I do not have the privilege to sit in the Committee on Delegated Legislation but I see my colleague, Hon. Shamalla, who is one of the Members in the Committee. This, in my view, is an attempt to circumvent the provisions of the Statutory Instruments Act. I support the Leader of the Majority Party that we deal with this matter as ... view
