Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. The Leader of the Majority Party has mentioned the independent candidates who want to participate in these EALA elections. I was wondering whether, as MPs, we can give them the signatures. He talked about 1,000 signatures. They can go to the constituencies and get 1,000 signatures. Can we, as Members, because some of us already have independent blood, give them the signatures as Members of Parliament? Even10? It is because they represent 100,000 signatures from my constituency. Is it possible that I can give that signature to the Members who want ...

Hon. Speaker, you made a clear ruling that petitions, according to the Standing Orders, should take only 60 days to be dispensed with. However, we are suffering because we present petitions and go to the committees to present our respective cases there, but the committees take more than five months to bring reports to this House. I presented a Petition on behalf of my constituents concerning a road called Nkubu- Mikumbune. I have been keenly following the Petition up to the Clerk’s Office. I have not seen the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing for ...

Yes, he has just sneaked in. He should respond to this issue once and for all. We are answerable to the constituents and we are entering a critical stage. It is through petitions that we are able to present the sentiments of our constituents. One of the ways through which we can represent our constituents is through Petitions.
