• 23 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, protect me from Hon. Wamunyinyi. view
• 23 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: I will be brief. I rise to support the Bill, which is timely and will be a very useful law. I thank Hon. Neto and his colleagues for a job well done. This Bill is quite progressive compared to what existed before. It is modernising what was there before and filling in the gaps that lacked in the Act that it seeks to repeal. I approach this Bill from the point of view that these are human beings. The refugees are human beings like any one of us. Therefore, all the human rights that apply to any human being, including ... view
• 23 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: I promised Hon. Wamunyinyi that I would be brief. So, with those few comments, I support the Bill. view
• 22 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion on the Report from the Departmental Committee on Health. We are moving on well. I want to believe that before long, the Health Bill will be a reality. The Committee has done a good job. We discussed this Bill here, and it was passed overwhelmingly by this House. I also notice that the Senate has made an input and it is quite useful. It is, maybe, trying to remove some ambiguities and make things clearer.

• 22 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: medicines. We should do something to ensure that our workforce is stable and motivated. We should also ensure that the terms and conditions of service are well understood and are commensurate to the services we call upon health personnel to give. I note that, perhaps, this is not being given the attention it deserves. We strongly recommended in the Bill that we have a human resource authority or board that can address these issues and minimise the instability we are seeing by way of strikes. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I also encourage that let this be our route towards universal healthcare. ... view

• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. Right away, I support this Motion very strongly. I will always support anything that improves the lot of our youth because I know that the best way for us to build the future of our country is through the youth who we all expect to hand over leadership and other responsibilities to. This Motion, should it be implemented, will obviously result in the improvement of a lot of our youth in terms of empowerment and advancing the quality of their lives. Some of the major threats to stability in our country ... view
