  • 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you for the latitude to deal with this very important matter. The very last thing I want to say is what hon. Dr. Khalwale has said. We will consult with our mission in Kampala. If there is any need to bring Mueni back to Kenya for better treatment, we shall not only do so for Mueni, but any other Ugandans that are available for further treatment with the better facilities that we have here. view

  • 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am sorry to the House that I do not have the Statement ready, but it is ready and available at the office. If you give us time up to early next week, either myself or my Assistant Minister will come and deliver it. I seek the indulgence of my honourable good friend. view
  • 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Can we do it on Wednesday, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir? view
  • 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, Tuesday is not good since I will be away in Burundi and my Assistant Minister is not here; I do not know if he will be available. But I know he will be available on Wednesday. view
  • 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I hate to interrupt my very good friend, hon. Kabando wa Kabando, but this amendment has been ventilated adequately by both sides of the House. I would wish to move that the Chair puts the Question so that we can vote on the amendment and go back to the main Motion. view
  • 22 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Bill. I want to congratulate the hon. Member who has brought the Bill. This is a Bill that has been long overdue, and which will make a difference in our fight against crime. If you look around the world, perhaps Asia leads in the roughages of human trafficking. Africa is about the second. view
  • 22 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in this regard, perhaps Asia leads in the ravages of human trafficking. Africa is number two. This continent looses in excess of 10,000 people who drown in the Mediterranean Sea while crossing to Europe. Their boats capsize as they are trafficked to places of imagined heaven. Some even perish while walking across the Sahara. If you go to West Africa, you will be told horrific stories of young boys and girls recruited and lured to walk for thousands of kilometres across the Sahara to get to what are called green pastures in Europe. When we ... view
  • 22 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, on page 64, the definition of trafficking in persons again needs to be expanded. The Bill says that a person commits the offence of trafficking in persons when the person recruits, transports, transfers, harbours or receives another person. I would like the mover to expand that to include a person who funds or finances such activities, directs or controls such activities or is in any other way associated with a similar offence so that it is all encompassing. This is because if you only limit yourself to recruiting, transporting, transferring, harbouring and receiving, then you ... view
  • 22 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: In Article 19, I agree with the immediate former speaker on the Floor that this advisory committee is too heavy for the Government and is unlikely to be productive. In fact, the Mover has put in almost the whole Government. What you need in an advisory committee like this is the Ministry responsible for children, Immigration, Foreign Affairs, Security and the Attorney-General. The rest can be consulted and co-opted when there is need. You can clearly state in the Bill that as and when there is need, line Ministries can be co-opted. When you have an advisory committee with 14 ... view
