• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the essence of this amendment is to ensure that where a person was forced to vacate office because of any legal issue is not found culpable of any unlawful act by a competent legal authority, he should resume his position. view

• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, in this amendment, I am proposing that the University Charter should provide for the core courses of the university and any proposed infrastructure for constituent colleges. view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to thank you for raising that issue. I just want to thank you for raising that issue.

This is because my concern is that you are talking about a university that is already granted a charter, then they may develop. If they do not develop, what happens to the students? view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, first of all, I want to congratulate Mrs. Noor for bringing this Bill. I want to say that from the outset that I support it with a bit of reservation. I would support with a reservation because of two reasons; one, this is an extremely important Bill that is raising fundamental issues. It seeks to abolish a Government institution and set up another in its place. Indeed, that was why the Chair was saying that we did not have the relevant Ministry to tell us whether they are comfortable with that and the reasons for the ... view
