• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Mr. Chairman, Sir, earlier one, as you recall, the House was debating the adequacy or inadequacy of the funds going go to the counties. We are all agreed that the funds going to the counties are inadequate even as of now. view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: On a point of clarification, Mr. Chairperson, Sir. If, indeed, there are two amendments coming to the Schedule, why would we not, in the first place, have a schedule that can be amended having passed it, or otherwise?
