• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move: view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: THAT, the Schedule to the Bill be amended by deleting the proposed amendment to section 9(1) of the Registration of Persons Act, Cap.107. The reason I am proposing this amendment is the same with the one Members have been stating. If you look at what is proposed in this amendment you realise that it is seeking to have an integrated identity management system that is very complex, that will be getting information from members of the public. When we are an advanced society, it is a very good thing. I am just wondering whether it is possible given the disparities ... view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: The other reason I am very skeptical about this is that the kind of things that are being proposed here would require substantive legislation. You can even see how the issues that are being proposed are contentious. People are talking about issues of privacy which are constitutional; issues of whether we are at the same level; and, the kind of information that is required. Would we have them in parts of the country? Do we not have them? It is unfortunate that we did not have – I do not know if it was there –the harmonisation committee. Those are ... view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I wish the Leader of the Majority Party could listen to me carefully. view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, we need to be clear about what we have done from a legislative perspective. If you read Section 9(1), it says “Delete. Insert the following new section immediately after section 9.” It is to insert. So, if it is deleted, there is nothing to be inserted. Leader of the Majority Party, if I could, please, have your ears. I was saying it is unfortunate that we do not have a harmonisation committee. If only we sat to discuss these things with each other, we really would have dealt with some of these things earlier on. Section ... view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Read the preceding words. Look at them. This is where you need to listen to lawyers. view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: The import of my deletion is that, if it is deleted, we go back to what is in the primary Act. That means we will have two conflicting sections, with what is in the primary Act. We are talking about legal construction and interpretation. This is not even about persuading each other on content. It says “insert the following new section immediately after Section 9”. So, I said “delete”. If that is deleted, all we have is the new section without a deletion of the parent one. So, what I have deleted is the proposed amendments, not what is in ... view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I just needed clarity because it is not just this miscellaneous amendments Bill that we have been dealing with on the Floor of the House. I need clarity on an issue of procedure. At what point is a clause considered new so that it requires to be read a Second Time? At what point is a new clause “new new” and a clause is “new”? I have heard new terminologies like “new new” and “new”. I have actually looked at it and I have seen the one that is “new” is in small letters ... view
• 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I had a similar amendment and I will explain the import. It is not correct that when cases are heard in camera, it is because people who are demonstrating are coming to look at the succession case. That is usually done in sensitive cases like rape. Otherwise, all proceedings in court are public except the ones for rape. Very few cases are private. view
