Government Chief Whip Amna Ally yesterday brushed aside criticisms by the opposition that the government had ulterior motives in postponing Parliament, telling Stabroek News that multiple sittings of the House are planned for December although she could not name a date.
She said, “You can expect a sitting. I cannot give you a date right now but we are going to have more than one next month.”
Ally added, “We are not trying to avoid anything. The opposition’s work is to criticise so they have been doing that by and large… We expect that of them.”
She was responding to questions by Stabroek News on whether there was any credence to the opposition’s statement that the government had postponed the November 12 sitting to avoid the PPP’s motion calling for the annulment of The Minis-ters, Members of the National Assembly and Special Offices (Emolu-ments) Order No16 of 2015,
