29 Jun 2006 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to say a few words about this Financial Statement. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Financial Statement by the Minister for Finance for this year had several key revolutionary aspects, some of them populist and empty rhetoric and others quite useful to this country. I commend the new requirement in the insurance law. We have had the problem of insurance brokers pocketing money meant for underwriters. As a result, when an accident occurs the victim would realise that the broker had already taken off with the money for good and even invested it. So, ...

29 Jun 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Executive's control over the CBK will make it possible for the Government not to be restrained by anybody when borrowing in the domestic market. It will also make it start the habit of printing money, if it is inconvenienced. It will also make it run out of control over very many other issues. So, I would like to ask the Minister for Finance, when he brings here proposed legislation related to this year's Financial Statement, not to include in it amendments to the CBK Act. He wants to cause a revolution in the management ...

13 Jun 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, the public corporations that have boards of management that expire in June, 2006 are a whopping 32. If you look at what is happening, you will realise that this Question is a bit omnibus in that the management boards in those parastatals are supposed to appoint the Chief Executive Officers but their mandate has also expired. You have a paralysis. This mess is caused by the Attorney-General, the Head of Civil Service and the Secretary to the Cabinet and the Minister. How can the boards of management and the Chief Executive Officers, whose mandate has expired run ...

On a point of clarification, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The argument I brought forward when I asked the Question was that the boards of those corporations and the Chief Executive Officers were appointed in the first half of 2003.
