  • 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the way you can see the Members of the Labour and Social Welfare Committee speaking, this is a matter--- view
  • 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Protect me from K’Oyoo hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker view
  • 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Oyoo yes. This matter had been deliberated very well at the level of the Committee of Labour and Social Welfare. The matter has been taken and referred to the Finance Committee by the same Committee. At that point, when they were referring this matter to that Committee as the parent Committee, there was no objection from the Chair of the Finance Committee. view
