  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you Chair. It is very difficult because he has actually moved Clause 5 with very many parts. There are parts I support and parts I do not support. view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: In one minute it becomes very difficult. What I would want to say is that I do not support the deletion of 43. I really do not care much about the deletion of 45. It may be retained or not, but I really oppose the deletion of 46 on ambulances and hearses. In Mbita Constituency, we bury almost 20 people every weekend and the Government does not assist. If you are able to afford the services of a hearse, which are not provided by the Government--- Burying people is almost a socio-economic need. On the issue of ambulances, we do ... view

  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I support the proposed amendment by hon. Sakaja. I would want to urge that if he is willing, we could adopt my further amendments on sub-clauses 10 and 12, to make it richer, then I would not have to propose my amendment. The rest of our amendments are similar. view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Whereas I agree with you that substantively our amendments are the same, the Chair has not taken into account the amendments that I am proposing in sub-clauses 10 and 12. So, I wholly support his amendments, but I do not know how we will do it. If I can move mine in 10 and 12 or he can adopt mine in 10 and 12 because they essentially speak to inclusion of persons with disabilities and women, it will fine. However, mine is wider because I also include 10 and 12. So, ... view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I stand under Standing Order No.134 and request that the House do sit again and report progress. view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Yes, but it is 30 minutes before time. view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: I am Nyasuba, but Member for Mbita. I am requesting that the House resumes so that we can request formally when the House is sitting fully and not as a Committee. We have 30 minutes and I can request when the House is sitting if we can sit in the next one minute. view
  • 23 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I think there must be something wrong with my intervention button. I am standing under Standing Order No.31 as read together with Standing Order No.1 requesting that we extend the sitting time until 1 O’clock because we have a lot of business. If you look at the nature of this House, many Private Members have a lot of Bills that we need to transact. We have just come back from recess and if you look at the Parliamentary calendar, we will soon be going on recess. You can see that the ... view
