• 30 Apr 2015 in Senate: Order, Sen. Billow! I made it clear and you are jumping the gun. I made it very clear that the Motion of Adjournment is finished. It will not be discussed again, except in so-far-as Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale is required to make a certain substantiation. That is what I said. If you want to re-open that debate, you will not do it by a point of order. You have to come to the Speaker’s Office and ask for leave to bring another Motion of Adjournment in which then you can deal with issues that you want to deal with. However, there ... view
• 30 Apr 2015 in Senate: Order, Sen. Haji. I have the greatest respect for all of you, Senators. I hope you will not make my work too difficult. I have made a ruling on that issue. The only thing pending, I have said, is what Sen. (Dr.) has to substantiate. I said this because – I want to be understood – all of you had a chance to be in the House and debate on the Motion of Adjournment. If you want to debate on a similar issue, you have to get the leave of the Speaker like Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale had the leave of ... view
• 30 Apr 2015 in Senate: Go on. GUIDANCE ON MEMBERS MAKING UNCONSTITUTIONAL STATEMENTS IN THE HOUSE view
• 30 Apr 2015 in Senate: That is important, Sen. Billow. If a statement is made in the House by any Senator and the Speaker raises or comes up with that issue--- If, for instance, you want to discuss the National Assembly, a Judge, the President or the presidency, for that matter, I would stop you in your tracks because I would point out Standing Order No.90 to you. It says you cannot impute improper motive even on your own colleague. However, I would like you to look at the HANSARD on the proceedings on Tuesday. I recall clearly - because I was chairing that debate ... view
• 30 Apr 2015 in Senate: Order! Sen. Abdirahman, I do not know what is not clear from what I have said. If you want to debate an issue in this House, you come here and participate in the debate. However, you cannot go and read the HANSARD and then come and say: “This issue should have proceeded this way.” It is wrong. We are not going to allow you, unless you bring a substantive Motion. I cannot allow you to possibly go and read the HANSARD and then come and try to make corrections of what has been said in the House. That is the ... view

• 30 Apr 2015 in Senate: Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, it is now your turn. I am not going to keep this open forever. view
• 30 Apr 2015 in Senate: I will allow everybody to say what they have to say today, but you have to say it correctly. Sen. Khalwale, on Tuesday you made the statement that you made and you were challenged by Sen. Hassan. I said:- “Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, the challenge is directed to you.” You said:- “Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, indeed, I am a scientist and I speak from a point of knowledge. According to the Standing Orders, I will come here tomorrow to table the list of the new recruits because I will get the list from the Parliamentary Service Commission from the Office of ... view
• 30 Apr 2015 in Senate: Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, I know Article 35 and Standing Order No.94, I understand all that. The point I am making is that, you stood from where you are standing now and said that you have that list, I challenged you and you said that you will table it. This is in fairness to the House and to the Standing Orders because you cannot stand in the House and say that you have evidence, and then say that you are going to look for that evidence. You either have it, suspect you have it or you do not. The reason we ... view
