• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: We are also seeking to correct an error of grammar as contained in paragraph 10 (c). The word “for” was typed as “fo.”For too far too long, matters have been pending in court. If you go to court right now, we have matters as old as since 1986. At times, you even find some matters of 1982. Some of those matters have been set down for hearing but, unfortunately, litigants, for unexplained reasons find ways of delaying them. So, we now want to make it mandatory to the judges who will be presiding over those matters, in terms of management ... view
• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: A judge is transferred from one station to the other and he leaves too many matters which are part heard.

• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: The Committee took note of the fact that most of these judges are family people; we should allow them time to move their children to schools in the stations they are moving to. If you are going to uproot a family from one station, they should have ample time to transfer their children from one school to the other. We must be sensitive to the needs of those judges as much as they are personal issues. view
• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: I must thank the hawk-eyed Hon. (Eng.) Gumbo, for seeing what I possibly did not see. This is a typo error. I, therefore, beg to move a further amendment to Clause 13 (1B) by deleting the word “level” immediately after the word “the” so that it reads as follows:- view
• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: (1B) The Chief Justice shall take into account the expertise and legal specialization in the deployment of judges under subsection (1)(b).” view

• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 14 of the Bill be amended in the prefatory statement by inserting the words “in so far as is reasonably practicable,” immediately after the words “which shall”.

• 12 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 16 of the Bill be amended in paragraph (e) by deleting the word “efficiency” appearing immediately after the word “effectiveness” and substituting therefor the words “expeditious disposal of matters”. view
