Rapapa, Member for Mosalemane Constituency, No.19 Ke kopa re tle re mameleng ka hloko, Bahlomphehi ba ka. Hon. Members, as I mentioned yesterday, on Wednesday, 4 th November, 2015, around 10 o clock in the morning, I received a letter from Hon. S.T. Rapapa. The preambular paragraph of that letter had clearly signified that it has been signed by the Members of Opposition as it had stated, we the undersigned Members of the Opposition but to my surprise, at the end of the end I found the only one signature of Hon. T.S. Rapapa. Around 12 o clock noon, I received a list signed by 37 Members of the Opposition and I was informed that it was an annexure to the letter that I had received earlier. Since the letter was signed by Hon. Rapapa alone followed by the attached list of names of 37 members of the Opposition, the first thing that I did at the beginning of yesterday s sitting was to request a meeting with the leadership of the opposition in my chambers after adjournment of the House to clarify some issues relating to the letter. Following the adjournment of the House at 2.46pm, another list of 11 more names of Members of the Opposition was sent to my office, at 3.15p.m, which increased the signatories to the total of 48 Members of the Opposition. Hon. Members, I wish to inform the House that indeed later in the afternoon, I met the 3 / 58

4 leadership of the Opposition and they clarified issues which I raised with them. Subsequently, I studied the contents of the letter and my findings are as follows: 1. The first paragraph, first line, of the letters, cites Standing Order No.29, which deals with Motions for Adjournment - Definite Matter of Urgent Public Importance. However, the very same paragraph and sentence in the second line, is notifying the office of the Speaker of the serious concerns that the undersigned Members of the Opposition have that may affect their attendance in the National Assembly. 2. Hon. Members, from these first three lines, which in my view form the basis of the message being conveyed to my office, as the rest of the contents of the letter are a list of serious concerns. I was therefore unable to establish whether the Member is asking for a leave to move the adjournment of the business before the House for the purpose of discussing a definite matter of urgent public importance as he had cited Standing Order No.29 or whether the Member was just notifying me of their serious conscience which might affect their attendance at the National Assembly. 3. It is pertinent though to note that reasons are advanced for not attending the sittings of the House or meetings of Committees should have been raised under Standing Order No Putting the letter aside, during yesterday s proceedings, Hon. Member for Mosalemane, rose on a point of order, and amongst the points that he raised, he said: M e Motsamaisi oa Lipuisano, re kopa hore taba ena ka ha ke taba e potlakileng 4 / 58

5 In another point he said: Kea leboha, Mohlomphehi Motsamamaisi oa Lipuisano, ka ho mpha monyetla oa hore ke bee taba ea ka. Mohlomphehi, ho latela Standing Order No.29, se re Setho se ka bea taba eo ke buang ka eona me re atlehile ho etsa joalo le Litho tse mashome a mane (40). Ke le Setho se ileng sa bontša hore re na le taba mona ho latela Standing Order No.29, ke mona moo ke reng taba ena e ne e ka sebetsoa hona joale kajeno hobane Litho tse fetang mashome a mane a metso e tšeletseng li ngotse lenane le bontšang taba ea bona. 5 / 58

6 5. Hon. Members, I understood from these points that the Hon. Member is actually contemplating to move the adjournment of the business before the House for the purpose of discussing a definite matter of public importance in terms of Standing Order No.29, but his letter only makes reference to Standing Order No.29 and talks about other things other than the issues related to that Standing Order. In short, there is nowhere in the letter where the Member has claimed to move the adjournment of the business before the House. 6. I am therefore unable to apply my mind to a situation that has not arisen or claimed. 7. Ka hona Litho tse Khabane, ke kopa Setho se Khabane sa Mosalemane se nthuse ka hore se ngole lengolo le hlakileng hantle hore na maikemisetso a sona ke ho etsa joang, na ke ho tsebisa Motsamaisi oa Lipuisano mabaka a ho ba sieo ha Litho tsa Bohanyetsi ka Ntlong kapa ke ho sisinya hore Lipuisano tse kapele ho Ntlo li emisoe na? 8.
