• 16 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I seek your guidance on whether the amendment proposed by Dr. Eseli is in order. He is trying to introduce an amendment that has already been negatived through the backdoor.

• 16 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I had requested you to give a ruling because the Standing Orders are very explicit on this. Once an amendment has been negatived, it cannot be re-introduced and that has already been confirmed again by hon. Gunda.

To add insult to injury, here is the Deputy Leader of Government Business who is trying to prioritize other Bills when we know that the pressure is mounting so much on Parliament. view
• 11 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, would I be in order to request that the Executive arm of the Government puts up in two daily newspapers; Daily Nation and The Standard a full page advertisement stating clearly that the reason why the constitutional implementation bills have not been in place is because the Executive side of the Government has been asleep.
