Among urged the Executive to carefully study the concerns of the MPs like the defective certificate of financial implications and how the rationalization process will impact on actual service delivery and have these addressed.

“When you continue having those idle talks that Parliament is useless, we aren’t and we shall not be. We will continue doing work for this country if you feel hurt that the RAPEX Bills were done unfairly, come back bring back the Bills, the House will still look at them if it means considering them, it will do it,” said Among.

She added that all the decisions done by the legislature are done in utmost faith not with any bad intention. 

“When we hear members having idle talks in Cabinet that members are being bribed, members are here, why don’t you come and argue in the House,”

Among noted that if Ministers think MPs aren’t doing anything in Uganda, then they should close Parliament.

She revealed that Parliament had considered 29 RAPEX Bills of which, 22 were passed, 8 were rejected and 7 were withdrawn by the Executive.
