When it is in the public, everybody knows and can come and claim. When you say that you want to have succession cases in camera, I do not understand. I did not talk to the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Justice ... view
  • 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: However, for those of us who are practitioners, it is mind boggling why you would want to have succession cases in camera. Then it means we will be saying that every matter that is in court should be heard in camera. It goes against the rule of law and human rights. view

As a lawyer, it actually helps me when it is in camera because I finish ... view
  • 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. This is the problem I have complained about. When we have many amendments, keeping up with them is a problem. I was actually waiting for the next one. I did not even see that I have one on traffic. view
  • 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Where is the Chairman of the Committee? Can you advise? view
  • 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: There are Members who are telling me to drop the amendment while others are telling me they support it. I am not dropping it. I will leave it to Members to decide. I am getting varied opinions. Let the House decide. view

  • 14 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, when we get to this stage of legislation, it is usually a matter of give and take. If the Chair has a middle ground, I am willing to drop my amendments. This is also to save the House time because we have a very lengthy process. Chair, I drop? view
