Suspension of a member of the East African Legislative Assembly from Tanzanian, Shy Rose Bhanji (pictured), from the Assembly’s commission was last evening halted due to lack of quorum minutes before members could cast their votes.
The Assembly had shelved the first business on the order paper to debate a motion that sought to review the rules of procedure that had been interrupted in March to prioritise Bhanji’s suspension.
But just as members were readying themselves to vote by way of secret ballot after a three-hour debate, Ugandan MP Susan Nakawuki brought it to the attention of the Speaker that though the members in the Assembly were more than the required three quarters of the Assembly, Tanzania did not have a representation of more than three members as required by the rules of procedure.The Speaker ruled that the voting be adjourned as Tanzania was not adequately represented.
