• 17 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I am standing on a point of order under Standing Order No.96. This is a very important Bill and I wish to propose that the consideration of the Bill be adjourned, so that we can get more time to allow Members to make contributions and amendments that they wish to bring like what has been brought by Members from the Coast region.
