Chinamasa tells Parliament that bond notes are above board

HON. CHAMISA: Hon. Speaker Sir, the Minister is very clear about what the law says and he agreed with me and I am surprised that he is giving a contrary response. He was in agreement with me that certain things were done illegally and unlawfully [HON. CHINAMASA: No I never agreed with you]- you did. [Laughter]-

THE HON. SPEAKER: Can we clarify the issue.

HON. CHINAMSA: Mr. Speaker Sir, no illegality has been committed and I must emhpasise this. No unlawful action has been. Whatever the Governor has done has been done within the law. It is up to the Hon. Member, if he feels that any of those measures can be challenged in court, we will meet there. -[HON. MEMBERS: Hear, hear.]-
