• 24 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, the Leader of the Majority Party is out of order. Everybody in this House knows that he professes the Muslim faith.

They have been dealing with different issues but when it comes to the interest of teachers, he has to declare interest. He should be allowed to sit in the Committee as a member. That is his right as a Member of Parliament in this House. view

• 28 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: While trying to procure goods, accounting officers must also be guided by the price index provided by the Public Procurement Authority in that particular year. Most of the accounting officers do not take the price index into account. Most of the goods are procured at much higher prices compared to the price index published annually by the Public Procurement Authority. In order to address this situation, accounting officers must be made to comply with Section 54(2) of the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Act, 2015, which prohibits public officials from procuring goods and services at inflated prices. Procuring entities must ... view
• 27 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, pursuant to provisions of Standing Order No. 42A(5), I rise to ask Question No.143/2019 to the Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Housing and Urban Development.
