20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly:
Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives proposed the amendment, but we have since then consulted with the Attorney-General. I have communicated with the Attorney- General and the Minister for Agriculture, and it is generally agreed that the Ministry of Agriculture is consolidating 131 statutes affecting the entire sector into one four viable volumes. Subsequently, we are withdrawing all the amendments touching on agriculture until we come to the main law.

Madam Temporary Deputy Chair, I want to plead with hon. Members to be patient with each other. You cannot have it all your way just to push your own things. Just understand it this way, Mrs. Shebesh. You have even tried to imply that I do not consult my Committee and the Members are here. We take collective decisions and we stand by our decisions.

On a point or order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead this House that indeed, there are loggers who are misusing that road without saying which forest they are coming from? In that whole zone, no forest is being harvested and whatever he has alleged is completely out of his imagination. Is he in order?

19 Jun 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, from 2008, we have sat and listened to the same Assistant Minister tell us stories on how they are going to amend that law. Now, it is four-and-a-half years down the line and they are still talking about that law being amended and compensation being streamlined.
