• 5 Aug 2020 in National Assembly: No. I said I had not received a response to my request for a statement. I was about to explain when you said that we should listen to him.

• 5 Dec 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I support the Motion on the Ratification of the Multilateral Convention on Mutual Administrative Assistance on Tax Matters.
