Email Correspondent with the Hon. Matthew Batsiua


Earlier this morning, I wrote an email to the Hon. Matthew Batsiua to see his view on the Speaker’s decision in relations to the dissolution of parliament.

Mr Batsiua said, the Speaker has painted himself into a corner by not following through with his promise in Court and that is to call for a Parliament Sitting if the Court ruled against his decision.

He said the Speaker’s excuse for not having the power to recall Parliament is wrong. Therefore we will be asking the Courts today to compel him to call Parliament so we can dissolve the House properly.

According to the honourable member, he said their party is committed to the dissolution so fresh elections can happen soon and further stated that they are not looking at stopping the dissolution.
