• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, that is why I was actually seeking clarification as to his amendment. The Bill, as was originally submitted, gave them a very big role. So, I was actually reducing that role through my amendment. Now that hon. Ethuro’s amendment has been carried, I want to drop my view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I can see that the chairman of the committee is pleading with me to drop this amendment, but I want to explain myself so that he understands me. I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 16(2) be deleted. Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, Clause 16(2) that I am seeking to delete provides that the Board may, with the concurence of the Cabinet Secretary, amend any of the schedules to this Act. A schedule to an Act is part of an Act of Parliament. So, you cannot sit in your office and amend an Act of Parliament. It has ... view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, perhaps, what I want the Minister to clarify is--- I do not know why he thinks it is better for it to go to the Minister as opposed to it going to the Constituencies Development Fund Committee. view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the amendments I proposed are very similar to the amendments by Mr. Ethuro. So, they have been taken care of. I withdraw them. view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I do not know where it came from. I am looking for it, and I cannot see it. In my hurry, I think I must have--- view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: So that I do not lose the amendment, I think when the Legal Committee was looking at it, they must have put it at the wrong place. That (c) is in relation to Clause 22; it is not in relation to Clause 20. So, for me the ones in relation to Clause 20 are (a) and (b). So, I have dropped (a) and (b) and (c) moves to Clause 22. view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Since the general feeling in the House is that it be a National Assembly function and we have not already passed Clause 20, there is no reason why we would recommit Clause 20 when we are still at it. So, my suggestion is that we just amend on the spot any subsequent amendment that has to do with “Joint.” Since Clause 20 is still not yet passed, Eng. Gumbo can move a further amendment to his own amendment, so that where he talks of “Joint” he just puts “National Assembly.” What ... view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, for Clause 20, I withdrew (a) and (b) and for (c) I said it was misplaced; it should be in Clause 22. view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, what I would like to encourage--- I was actually trying to look for another article in the Constitution other than Article 55 that actually talks about giving affirmative action to the youth. However, my only challenge is that the percentage that has been quoted is too high. This is especially because already there are other certain percentages that have been allocated to different sections. The only thing I am worried about is that we give a lot of lip-service to the youth. When it comes to issues of gender and persons with disability, we mainstream them. ... view
• 8 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I know that my brother hon. Augustino is not happy, but we will have another day to push the youth agenda. I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 22 of the Bill be amended- (a) In subclause (4) by deleting the words “religious bodies or religious activities” after the words “or for supporting” and replacing with the words “criminal or illegal activities”; (b) In subclause (10) by adding the word “Planning” before the word “Monitoring”. The import of my amendment is that we are criminalizing religious bodies. So, I am very boldly saying that the only thing ... view
