16 Aug 2007 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have lost a day here discussing a vote because there was no quorum.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, we will just have to continue until we conclude. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the matters on the Order Paper are, as you said, very weighty. We will need two stages.
