• 27 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: What I am seeking to do is to remove 14 days notice for any meeting. We can see very clearly that this Commission is a very busy one. Therefore, if you give it 14 days every time they want to meet, it is a way of crippling it. When you want to cripple the Commission, you do not cripple it by directly saying “bring down the Commission”, but by doing very many administrative actions that then cripple it and it makes its work difficult, one of which is of course, raising the quorum to impossible standards and the second one ... view
