• 16 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Motion is not properly before the House. view
• 16 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Motion should not be debated because--- I am looking at the Act; let us be guided on this. The Act is very clear on how this should be read in the House. It does not matter. The House Business Committee (HBC) can make a mistake and we should not go by it. I am asking for your guidance. view
• 16 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me a chance to contribute to this Motion. I am not against increasing the Government’s ceiling. However, I would like to know whether this Government borrows money without seeking the approval of this House. If they have done so, how can we give them a credit limit to go and borrow?

If you look at this Motion which is coming up and if I look at Motion No.10, which talks about the Independent Offices (Appointment) Bill (Bill no. 11 of 2011), we have only noted it and referred it to the Committee. The same should apply to the Motion that the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance wants to bring. It is not for discussion. It should be referred to the Committee which will come with its findings and we shall debate it. It is not something for us to debate. view
• 9 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the House Business Committee has made a mistake by putting this Motion on the Order Paper, should we go by it? It is the House Business Committee which has erred, because as far as I am concerned, it should not have allowed this Motion to be brought to this House today. So, let us follow the Constitution, which we all swore to protect. So, as things stand now, this should not be debated and it is not for us to vote on it because it is not an issue of voting. It is for the ... view
