• 16 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I rise to support this Procedural Motion for the simple reason that the purpose of introducing a Bill in the First Reading is merely to give notice to hon. Members that the Bill will come for Second Reading and Members will have an opportunity to look at it and scrutinize. I have personally gone through these two Bills. Even as has been explained by the Chairman of the Departmental Committee, the Marriage Bill is seeking to consolidate laws that have in the past existed in disparate legislation. They are being consolidated into one Bill. The purpose of seeking ... view
• 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. With regard to the application for adjournment; when the adjournment was sought last week about the CDF funds, it was actually sought on the basis that; whereas the CDF was allocated properly in the Budget for current financial year, the Supplementary Budget sought to reallocate the CDF, that means allocating it to other accounts other than CDF account contrary to the law.

• 17 Apr 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I also wish to support this Motion. It is important for the Members to observe that the number of Members in the House is quite substantial.

We would like to hear him because this is a very important Bill relating to the legislative work of Parliament. view

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the essence of this amendment is simply to polish this definition of police officer to be in line with the National Police Service Act. view
