13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise under Standing Order No.108, which requires that except by the leave of the House, not more than one stage of a Bill can be taken at any one Sitting. I am aware that a number of my colleagues would stand with me to deny the proceedings on this Bill the requisite leave of the House.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to read out the entire Standing Order, which says as follows:- â108.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you go to Standing Order No.107, you will appreciate that what is before us is not an Appropriation Bill, but a Supplementary Appropriation Bill.

With your permission, I can read out Standing Order No.107, so that what I mean can be very clear to this House.

13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to read out Standing Order No.107, which gives a distinction between a Consolidated Fund Bill, Appropriation Bill and a Supplementary Appropriation Bill. These three Bills are totally distinct. Standing Order No.107 reads as follows:- â107. No Bill shall be introduced unless such Bill together with the memorandum referred to in Standing Order No.106 (Memorandum of objects and reasons), has been published in the Gazette (as a Bill to be originated in the House), and unless, in the case of a Consolidated Fund Bill, an Appropriation Bill or a Supplementary Appropriation Bill, a ...

So, what I am saying is that these Bills, namely the Consolidated Fund Bill, the Appropriation Bill and the Supplementary Appropriation Bill, are distinct. What are exempted under Standing Order No.108 by the proviso are only the Consolidated Fund Bill and the Appropriation Bill. So, the Supplementary Appropriation Bill is not exempted. Therefore, the leave of this House is necessary before we proceed.

13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with all due respect to your ruling, there is something that did not come out very clearly. I did not read Standing Order No.107 with regard to publication. I read it to indicate to this House that the Appropriation Bill is different from the Supplementary Appropriation Bill.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. I did not want to interrupt my good friend, hon. Ethuro. But he has made a very serious allegation that there are some people who have been invited. Who are the people who have been invited? Could it be that the people who should have been invited are the ones who are saying that they have been invited?
