  • 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I support that amendment. It is just making sense. The census is a national activity. So, it is making it tidier that instead of it being at the level of the Director-General adding or subtracting numbers, it is good to escalate it to the Cabinet Secretary and then to the Cabinet.

  • 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the amendment seeks to enhance accountability to the furthest office possible. It is not doing anything to erase what the Director-General is supposed to do. He can do his work and finish and then take it to the board. The board can take it to the Cabinet Secretary and the Cabinet. That is what the amendment is doing. view

If the data has been invalidated and the Cabinet Secretary has declared it invalid, how will regulations cure that? Therefore, I oppose the amendment. view
