• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Even as I propose this amendment, I am glad that the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare is sitting here and seeing what the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security is doing. It is a Bill that comes from the Committee, but honestly, they bring one or two amendments to their Bill, when I have almost 50 amendments. There must be something wrong with the Committee. Having said that, I am glad they can see… view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: There is something wrong, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. That is why the Chairperson is running away. He has left his Vice- Chairperson to… view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: He is a Member. Let me move my amendment on Clause 27. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Hon. Kaluma is a bit confused. I am not talking about your Committee. I can only accuse your Committee of opposing everything that I brought even though I still bring them here. However, I am glad you are opposing because you have brought your own amendments. I am speaking about the Committee that dealt with the Care and Protection of Older Members of Society Bill that brought two amendments, and as a lawyer, I had over 50 amendments. It is a very unserious Committee. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Let me move my amendments for this Committee to now oppose.

(b) by renumbering the existing provision as sub-clause (1). The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: The amendment talks about screening of refugees that come, and it gives the reasons for the screening which is to ensure the security and safety of the people. I am also seeking to add that it should not stop there, but also to prevent trafficking in persons especially women and children and also stop terrorism as part of the reasons. view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: I do not know whether I should move the second one as well? view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 27(2) of the Bill be amended by inserting the following new sub- clause immediately after sub-clause (1) ─ “(2) Any security screening shall be undertaken in a manner that preserves the dignity of the person and that protects the rights of vulnerable persons including women and children.” Under this one, I am also proposing a new amendment which is Clause 27(2) that requires that any security screening shall be undertaken in a manner that preserves the dignity of the person and that protects the rights of vulnerable persons especially women ... view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I am glad that I told Hon. Kaluma before that when we are here, it is give-and-take. I can see that it is covered under Clause 21 and so there is no reason to move. Speaking as a woman, I want to urge my uncle, Hon. Kaluma, that he has certain privileges as a man that women do not have. Whatever looks obvious to him might not be obvious to women. We keep restating and that is what we call “mainstreaming gender and women rights issues.” Even though it is in the Constitution, unless it is ... view
• 25 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: and you might not understand me. Maybe, one day in another life, you will ask God that you come back as a woman. It is only then that you will understand. view
