Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. What we are discussing today is very important in the sense that for the last two weeks, we have been discussing the cost of living. The high cost of living is partly caused by the cost of energy. The high tariffs that we have have...

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I thank our Members of Parliament who attended this meeting in Rwanda. The information they have given us is useful. I appreciate them. There are many common problems to parliamentarians in their different...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am happy you have given me a chance. Regional organisations such as the ACP-EU are very important. Therefore, I have to contribute to it. One thing I must say is that if you have ACP- EU and strengthen it even more in the new...

Thank you, Hon Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Our problems in this country are unemployment and trade, which means lack of foreign exchange. I thank Hon. Elachi for the Motion because it is addressing these two issues. If we increase our foreign exchange, we will be able to solve...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. My appeal is that we should look at our tax regime again so that we can tax people in a manner that is conducive to the economy. You remember that the Government has now adopted no subsidy for consumption. This means that petrol, for example,...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am glad that you recognise Karachuonyo as a constituency of great people. The President wanted our views. It is important that we give him our views on what he sent to our Speaker. Let me start with the NG-CDF. The fund has done wonders...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am sorry, I have been tossed here and there to get a working microphone. At last, I have one. On my own behalf and that of the people of Karachuonyo, I register our condolences to the people of Kiambaa and to the family of the late...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support this Motion, under the persuasion that we have to look at the unemployment position in this country. We also have to consider the development situation in this country. We must be innovative and find out how we can create employment and also develop...
