• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: He said, “We have trained 10,000 police officers. It does not matter if 1,400 resign.” That kind of attitude is not good. How do you expect the police officers to be motivated to do their work when they watch television and see their boss speak like that? I will move to the issue of salaries that has been talked about. If someone has been awarded a salary, there is no way you can reduce that person’s salary under the excuse that he was wrongly awarded. The person has been paid that salary for some period of time! What is the ... view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: those areas, they need clear insurance cover. In the event that they lose their lives, those they leave behind – their loved ones – at least can have somewhere to start. I conclude by talking about the benefits we give to our police officers. It is important that we look at the living conditions and medical cover of the police officers. I ask the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security to do two things. One, it should look into complaints that the police officers have registered with regard to their salaries. Two, it should look at the NPC and ... view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to second this Motion. I remember you had earlier asked me to nominate our Members to this Committee on Appointments, but I declined and gave reasons. As a Coalition, we had taken a position. However, since then, some developments have taken place which we are all aware of. Right now, circumstances have changed. Contrary to what Hon. Duale, the Leader of the Majority has said, that ‘ Baba’ has instructed: I do not really need to get instructions from ‘ Baba’ because I always know what he would think or what he has in ... view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: particularly we in NASA, should be a test case. We are an example to the world. It is very rare to find a coalition existing after an election for five years. We existed as a Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD) in the Opposition for five years. I do not see anything stopping us from existing as the NASA coalition even for the remaining four and half years. Hon. Speaker, I want to conclude there and ask my colleagues that we support these Members. I know Hon. Peter Kaluma and Hon. T.J. Kajwang are known lawyers. Hon. Eseli is someone ... view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I want to announce to the new Members that there is a scheduled meeting regarding the Committee on Appointments today in Room No.9 at 4.30 p.m. view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to take this opportunity to contribute to the Computer and Cybercrimes Bill. view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: This Bill is supposed to set a legal framework to prevent and control the threat of cybercrime that we see. Basically, the crimes or offences we are looking at are those that are against computer systems or the offences committed by means or use of computer systems. My colleagues have talked about it, but I also want to add that this country has never had a legal framework to handle these kinds of crimes which have so severe and serious repercussions comparable to terrorism. The other wide spread crime that is devastating both to the economy and even social set ... view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Even though this is more or less and an ICT related Bill, it has a security angle. That is why the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security was allowed to make his comments to inform the debate. But there are specific offences or crimes we are going to look at in this Bill. One of them is unauthorised access to the system, damage to computer data or programmes and sabotage to hinder functioning of a computer system. Those are some of the crimes we are going to look at. It is going to be a land ... view
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: One of those countries is Nigeria. It just passed a law they call the Cybercrime Act of May 2015 but as we speak, there is debate that there is need for the Nigeria National Assembly to amend the law. Why? It is a very technical area. I ask and encourage the two Committees - because the general membership of this House may not be in a good position to come up with 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
• 21 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: amendments that are going to enrich this law - to engage more seriously on this Bill so that when we pass it, it becomes useful to us. My concern is that even if we pass this legislation, is it going to be applied or used? We have passed many laws in this country, but I am afraid they are never applied for the intended purposes. The law enforcers do not use them. I want to give the example of Nigeria to show why the committees need to be more serious on this Bill. While the members were debating the Cybercrimes ... view
