Parliament’s Finance Committee Chairman, Isaac Adongo, says the committee has had no reason to worry about government bills brought before it, citing bipartisan scrutiny and broad agreement among members.
Parliament's Finance Committee Chairman, Isaac Adongo, stated on Joy News' PM Express Business Edition that he has not had any reason to worry about government bills presented before the committee. He emphasized the bipartisan scrutiny and broad agreement among members that have characterized the committee's deliberations. Adongo clarified that the committee's decisions are not dictated by the chairman but are made collectively by the committee, taking into account the nation's interests.
He cited the Gold Board establishment bill as an example, noting that opposition members voiced concerns about certain provisions but ultimately did not oppose the bill's underlying principle. Adongo defended the passage of the bill, crediting the Gold Board with a significant impact, while acknowledging that shortcomings might emerge and necessitate review.
He believes that opposition members would support a review if the executive sought changes to specific clauses.
