• 11 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to oppose. The reason I am opposing is if you look at the Order Paper, we have substantial business. Even last week when the sitting time was extended, we were extremely few in this House. So, quality is definitely compromised; because at the time when we were looking at those Bills, most of us were extremely exhausted. It is the same faces that sit here day in, day out. view
• 11 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have had a whole five years when these Bills should have been brought. If they were that urgent, they should have been brought within that timeframe. Finally, even the Supreme Court acknowledges that the gender rule is progressive. So, I do not know why these Bills cannot follow the normal procedure. They are not as urgent as the gender rule, which the Supreme Court does not think is important. So, I do not see why this is more important than the gender rule. view

• 11 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to report that a Committee of the whole House has considered The Basic Education Bill, Bill No.46 of 2012 and approved the same with amendments. view
• 11 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. We have just discussed with the Chair of the Committee that if it is agreeable to the Minister, we move this to Thursday so that we move to the ones that we do not have issues with like the Research Bill before we come back to these other ones on Thursday. This will enable us to iron out the issues. We do not want to throw away the Bill but we want to input the issues that are of concern to us. The Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, ... view
• 11 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Dr. Otichilo, let us be very clear about what you are doing. You have proposed an amendment. Are you proposing a further amendment to your amendment or is the hon. Attorney-General seeking to amend your amendment? Are you withdrawing? view
• 11 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: The hon. Attorney-General cannot do that, hon. Otichilo. You are the one who can. It is not the hon. Attorney-General’s Bill. If you are in agreement with the hon. Attorney-General, then I would suggest that you withdraw Section 26(i). So, you just say that you are moving the amendment, but withdrawing Section 26(i). view
• 11 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: That is Clause 26(i) as per the Order Paper. For avoidance of doubt, it is not the Roman (i) after the (b), but there is (i) at the end. I think there was a problem with the numbering which reads: “In (i) in sub clause (2), by inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (a)— “(aa) such moneys as may be appropriated by Parliament for the purposes of the Council”. So, is that what you are withdrawing? view
