Sponsored By Hon.Kahinda Otafire (Minister of Internal Affairs )
Committee: The Committee on Defence and Internal Affairs
Start
First Reading/Committee
The bill is still at First Reading, and the first stage is a passage through the floor of parliament. This stage is usually a formality, primarily focusing on introducing the Bill to the Parliament. It takes place without debate, and the first reading of a Bill can occur anytime in a parliamentary session. The significance of this stage lies in the fact that it marks the formal introduction of the Bill to the Parliament, setting the stage for further discussions and debates.
Second Reading
Third Reading
Presentation/Waiting Assent
Assented by President
End
Bill passed on 01/01/1970
Bill Withdrawn on 12/02/2025
This Bill has been withdrawn. A bill may be withdrawn by the Member in charge after the question for its second reading (or other stages) has been proposed, provided that the question itself is first withdrawn and the Member has the floor. If there is any objection, the question cannot be withdrawn, and the stage concerned proceeds to a conclusion. A Member other than the Member in charge of the bill, if they have made the motion for second reading, can, with leave, withdraw that motion but not the bill itself. A bill may also be withdrawn during its committee stage if the committee is first discharged from (further) consideration of the bill.
