• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chair, I want to support. In supporting, I want to say that we are setting a good trend by having inclusivity especially from regional, gender and skills balance. The only thing I encourage us is to know that, as a country, we are being left behind. In Ethiopia, ministers are 50/50 and they just appointed a woman President. Even if it is just ceremonial, we do not mind. Who told you we mind being ceremonial presidents? Sabina Chege does not mind being ceremonial, neither do I? view

• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Hon. Sabina Chege has moved 4(e) which talks about the Part IV. We are moving straight to (g). I do not know what we intend to do with (f). We have jumped from (e) to (g). We are on page 1419. The only thing she has moved is the title to Part IV and there is (f) and (g). Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, can we, please, have direction? The only thing she moved and spoke to was the title which is in (e). I do not know whether we are together, Hon. Temporary Deputy ... view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: I have been very alert. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Maybe, for purposes of the future, I encourage that we do what we have done in the past, especially when we have new clauses. They should come towards the end. We now have a mix of things; new clauses and sections. It gets a bit confusing. We need to solve that for the future. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I stand to oppose for the reasons given by Hon. (Dr.) Robert Pukose. The reason is that there is a difference between what we say and what appears in the law. When we define the way he has defined, we are defining it here on the air. It is not law. In fact, when he talks about evacuation, my English understanding is that it is invasive. A lot of reproductive procedures are that. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: No, I am telling you from my English understanding, not medical. When you will be interpreting the law, the first rule of interpretation is the plain English meaning, not medical meaning. It is plain English meaning. So, when you talk about invasion, what I would have encouraged the medical people to do is to provide exclusion. Chair, please understand us instead of lobbying. I want you as a lawyer to listen to me. The best way you should have done this is exclusion. What you would have done by exclusion, because we also want our patients to be safe, is ... view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Yes. We agree that they cannot do surgery. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: But, when you talk about “invasive”, it is what I am telling the Chair. Even if they wanted to say “invasive” as per what they are talking about, then they should have included it in the definition section. Chair, I want you to listen to me even if you disagree with me. You should have provided what “invasion” means in the definition section. Otherwise, even if you defeat this, procedure means much. What is procedure? Even a surgery is a procedure. view
