On a point of order, hon. Speaker. I have just noticed a small mistake. We have been transacting this Bill on Order No.11 as Bill No.28 and the one that we have just finished as Bill No.27 of 2014. But in the actual Bills that have been published or gazetted, this particular Bill, the Appropriation Bill, 2014 is actually Bill The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

No.27 of 2014. The one that we have finished is Bill No.26. So, for record purposes, this Bill that we are just about to transact under Order No.11 should be National Assembly Bill, Bill No.27.

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker, for pleading on my behalf. If we do not have a quorum, we may not conclude this Bill. Quorum is there. So, can we maintain it?

25 Jun 2014 in National Assembly:
Hon. Deputy Speaker, I just wanted to say that, really, asking someone to quit politics is unconstitutional. I have even heard hon. Members asking that we incorporate into this Bill Members of Parliament who have served just one term. If that is the case, Clause 3 will work against all of us. I do not think that anyone would want to be told to quit politics to get their benefits, especially Members of Parliament. We should live to the spirit of the second stanza of our prayer.
