• 10 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Actually, there is nothing new on this because we have been receiving Reports of Constitutional Commissions and Independent Offices, only that we are clarifying and putting time limits. However, that is not what I was smiling at. I know you could not see my smile because of the mask. Hon.

I wonder what this face off is and this is a Procedural Motion. I second. view

• 10 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I really did not wish to say much about this matter but there is something that I wanted to clarify on this whole issue of seconding and moving. It should be understood that Procedural Motions are actually a product of the House Business Committee.

• 10 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: The Leader of the Majority Party has articulately explained that Wednesday would have been a preferred sitting day to Thursday for us, as I have been sharing with some of my colleagues, because most Members would want to start to travel to their constituencies.

So, we will sit on Tuesday, have Wednesday for our staff to do what is best in our interests and have Thursday Sittings. view

• 10 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: We looked at the life of this Parliament and I thank the membership of the House. The 12th Parliament, contrary to perception out there, in the year of COVID-19 when we had a lot of challenges, we passed and had 23 Bills assented into law. That is just one Bill less than what we did the previous year. The other year it was 24 Bills while last year it was 23. This year, we are likely to do even much better. So, we did not underperform even at the time of COVID-19. view
