• 10 Feb 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise, pursuant to Standing Order No.47(1), to make a Statement on an issue of topical concern, namely, the need to check the quality of salt in the market.

• 4 Nov 2020 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I rise, pursuant to Standing Order No.47(1), to make a Statement on an issue of general topical concern, namely, enforcement of rules and regulations to remove toxic paints from our country.
