NEWS– The Forum for Democratic Change FDC party President Eng. Patrick Amuriat Oboi has declared Hon. Lumu’s proposals on the administration of Parliament (amendment) bill 2024 redundant and ineffective.
Amuriat made remarks on 10th October 2024 in his presentation to the committee of legal and Parliamentary Affairs on the invitation of Parliament while outlining the party’s views on the Administration of Parliament (Amendment) Bill 2024.
According to Amuriat, the FDC’s position is that there is no defect or mischief that necessitates the amendment of the principal Act.
“We consider Hon. Lumu’s proposals redundant and ineffective in addressing any supposed issues in the current law”, he added.
The FDC President stressed that the committee should independently recommend to Parliament the dismissal of the Bill to avoid further waste of Parliament’s time and taxpayers’ money.
Eng. Amuriat was accompanied by Deputy President Ms. Margaret Wokuri Madanda, Vice Chairperson Hon. Robert Centenary and Deputy Secretary for Publicity (Publications) Mr. Mulindwa Walid Lubega.
