• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. The Member has good points about the main law on public procurement. But the intent of the Senate is not to cover just the main Act but other regulations and other legislations that affect procurement matters in this country. It is indeed true that there is one major public procurement Act.

Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 4 be amended by inserting the following new Sub-clause immediately after Sub-clause (5)— “(5A) This Act— (a) has effect subject to the Constitution; (b) applies despite any other existing law, whether or not explicitly repealed or amended by this Act; (c) applies despite any regulations or other subordinate legislation under any Act.” The reason for this amendment is that in our statute books, we have over 33 pieces of legislation, which in one way or the other, touch on matters of information.

• 28 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. In view of the clause we just passed earlier, which was already protecting the intention that I intended to protect, and in view of what the Leader of the Majority Party has said, I admit that this is a lazy style of drafting where you do not want to look at what all the other pieces of legislation are saying. I agree and withdraw the amendment. view
