31 Mar 2016 in National Assembly:
I wish to draw the attention of the House to the Provisions of Standing Order No.24(4) of both the National Assembly and the Senate with regard to the President’s Address to Parliament. For avoidance of doubt, Standing Order No.24(4) of the National Assembly provides as follows:- “When delivering an address to the House, the President shall be heard in silence and the Address shall not be followed by any comment or question.” The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

31 Mar 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon Members, as you are always aware, the Standing Orders of both Houses are anchored on Article 124 of our Constitution which empowers each House of Parliament to make Standing Orders for, among other things, the orderly conduct of business.

31 Mar 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon. Members, therefore, any breach of these Standing Orders indeed would be a breach as well of the anchor. Those that may have had some things they wanted to say, I am sure they have said it to their satisfaction. It is now fair that they allow those others who wish to listen to the Address by His Excellency the President the opportunity to be heard in silence without comment or questions as per the Standing Orders of the two Houses.

31 Mar 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon. Members, it will be disorderly for any Member to interrupt the Speech by His Excellency the President by breaching Standing Order No.24(4) of both Houses. Any breach, obviously, attracts penalties as you have provided for in the Standing Orders.
