• 19 Nov 2015 in Senate: Sen. Wetangula, what are you asking me to do in your point of order? view
• 19 Nov 2015 in Senate: I watched it, Sen. Wetangula. The Speaker ruled that there was going to be a ruling on the several issues that consumed the whole afternoon of Tuesday. The ruling has not been made. All you have done is to further strengthen your case so that when the Speaker makes that ruling, he puts into account what you have now said. view
• 19 Nov 2015 in Senate: The ruling will be regarding the electronic vote which you may not have canvassed that time and the voice vote which was also taken. Although I see there are some requests here, I do not want to protract this issue. The issue to be determined here is essentially what the meaning of Sen. (Dr.) Machage disowning his decision on what he vitiated is. I am not going to allow this issue to be reopened. It is pending the ruling of the Speaker. view
• 19 Nov 2015 in Senate: I did not know what you were going to go to. However, now that I know, all I can say is that what you have said should be taken into account when the Speaker gives a considered ruling on the issues that arose on Tuesday. However, you cannot now ask me to make a ruling from where I am sitting because a ruling is already pending. view
• 19 Nov 2015 in Senate: Let me put it this way so that we can put this matter to a close: I agree with you that it is important that, the ruling must decide exactly what was vitiated so that we know where exactly we stand or we are going back to status quo on item listed as Order No.8 of the Order Paper or whether we are only dealing with the voice vote. view
• 19 Nov 2015 in Senate: Order, Members! Sen. Wetangula, I am used to finishing one issue and dealing with another. I was trying to deal with the issue that you raised which I have done. Now you want to bring up the issue of music, you can do that. In the meantime, could the orderlies check where that noise is coming from; whether it is in the precincts of Parliament? If it is, order that bit be stopped. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 19 Nov 2015 in Senate: Hon. Senators, first, is on the issue that was raised by Sen. Hassan. You were here when the Senate Majority Leader read the business of the Senate for the week commencing on Tuesday, 24th November, 2015. Therefore, I cannot interrupt it from where I am sitting. I believe that if the RBC sits on Tuesday and makes a decision, the same shall be communicated to you. However, just because the National Assembly has adjourned for those two days does not set precedence for me to adjourn this House. On the issue raised by Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale and reiterated by Sen. ... view
• 18 Nov 2015 in Senate: Well, I could not make that announcement myself, could I? view
• 18 Nov 2015 in Senate: They should know the procedure. What Sen. Wetangula is saying is the correct position. view
• 18 Nov 2015 in Senate: You are now being disorderly. Shall we proceed? The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
