• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: amendment is dropped. It is not that the amendment has a problem. The problem is that it is in breach of the procedure. So, this is in breach of procedure. view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: The clear Standing Orders that state that if a person chooses not to be present, he can authorise another Member of Parliament in writing to move the amendment. It is just purely on matters of procedure. I am concerned. Otherwise, if we go the way we are going, it will be in breach of procedure. I respect Hon. Jakoyo Midiwo and that he knows, but he cannot break the rules of this House. Otherwise, we will be in tatters. view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I think we are confused. There are too many things that have been happening. We have lost view. view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 5 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (1) by a) deleting the words “Attorney-General” in paragraph (b) and substituting therefor the words “Solicitor-General”; b) deleting paragraph (d); c) inserting the words “and secretary to the Board” immediately after the word “member” in paragraph (g). We are seeking to delete the Attorney-General as one of the members of the Board and to replace thereof the Solicitor-General. The reason is that all the other members are all Principal Secretaries. So, the Attorney-General cannot be sitting in a Board in which he ... view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Secondly, the other four members of the Board are appointed by the Attorney- General. So, he cannot be sitting with his own appointees. He plays a supervisory role as the Attorney-General. view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: The other part we are seeking to amend is to appoint the Registrar-General as the Secretary to the Board because there was no Secretary that was provided for the Board. It is a requirement that there must be a Secretary to the Board. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: I am sorry, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I did some omnibus explanation. I assumed that Hon. Gumbo, who is my good friend, was present in our Committee. The Committee Members considered the membership of the Board and the relevance of every person who is there. The Principal Secretary in charge of Devolution was proposed to be a member of the Board. This is not a devolved function. There is nothing devolution about this matter. This is a national matter. So, we did not see any relevance with the Principal Secretary in charge of Devolution. She does not fall anywhere. These ... view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 6 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (1)─ a) in the prefatory statement by deleting the expression “5 (1) (f)” appearing immediately after the word “section” and substituting therefor the expression “5 (1) (f)”; b) by deleting the word “five” appearing immediately after the words “term of” in paragraph (a) and substituting therefor the word “three”. We are seeking to correct a typographical error in the cross-referencing and to limit the term of other members of the Board to three years. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The electronic ... view
• 25 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 10 of the Bill be amended by deleting the words “Board may, with the approval of the Cabinet Secretary” appearing immediately after the words “allowances as the” and substituting therefor the words “Cabinet Secretary may, in consultation with the Salaries and Remuneration Commission”. The reason being that we are seeking to align the determination of the remuneration of the Board with Article 230(4)(b) of the Constitution which is a requirement that all State officers’ salaries must be determined by the Salaries and Remuneration Commission and that the Commission should be ... view
