• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. On the same issue, and it is not hon. Khalwale’s fault--- If copies of the written answers to the Questions we pose are given to us a little bit earlier, we would be able to collect our facts and sometimes even correspond with the people who are interested in the Question to try and get the facts. So, when they give us a late reply, we are forced to do last minute rushes to make phone calls and try to verify some of the falsified information that Ministries supply to ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek your guidance. Three weeks ago, we were confronted with issues in this House that had to do with the conduct of the Executive arm of the Government in terms of answering queries and statements raised by hon. Members of Parliament.

We waited for such a ruling but it ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to support the Motion but with an amendment. Many a times we have been called upon as a House to burn the midnight oil for reasons which sometimes we cannot comprehend. Although the Minister is calling for magnanimity which we want to offer but at times we think the HBC unreasonably loads business on this House that sometimes cannot be sustained until hon. Members are drained and then we are blamed outside there because of maybe passing defective laws and things that are not up to date. view

It reads:- THAT, the Motion be amended by inserting the words “as Order Nos.8, 9, 10 and 11” after the word “appearing” on the last line”. Hence the amended Motion would read:- THAT, notwithstanding the provisions of Standing Order No.20(2), this House resolves that the time of today’s sitting be extended until conclusion of business appearing as Order Nos.8, 9, 10 and 11 on the Order Paper. view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is because that is what is reasonably able to be transacted in this House. We know we have a Miscellaneous Amendment Bill that we want to put so much in. Even the fact that the Government attaches not much importance to all the other Bills, except the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill can be verified by the text message I got from the Chief Whip. We were whipped to come to this House to pass no other law than the Miscellaneous Amendment Bill and, in fact, hon. Members can also attest to it if they ... view
