THE TEMPORARY SPEAKER: Order Hon. Members, I want to hear Hon. Cross debating.
HON. CHINOTIMBA: On a point of order Madam Speaker.
THE TEMPORARY SPEAKER: What is your point of order?
*HON. CHINOTIMBA: My point of order is that I was talking about Gukurahundi and I wanted to express when this started and who started it? Why was I ruled out of order and why is Hon. Cross talking about Gukurahundi when I have been barred from talking about it and the Chimurenga. I wanted to say the first thing was not Gukurahundi but it was Entumbane. They are saying no, but this one is talking about it. People were killed – who killed them? So, let us leave that out. He is labeling me a murderer when I liberated him. For him to be in this House, it is because of me. They should stop such issues. I have been barred from speaking
THE TEMPORARY SPEAKER: Order Hon. Chinotimba. Hon. Members, can we please maintain order in the House – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] – Hon. Members, I will not hesitate to take action right now, if you continue in this mood. – [HON. CHINOTIMBA: Inaudible interjection.] – Hon. Chinotimba and Hon. Mawere, do not force me to take action against you. – [HON. CHINOTIMBA: Inaudible interjection.] – Hon. Chinotimba!
THE VICE PRESIDENT AND MINISTER OF NATIONAL HEALING, PEACE AND RECONCILIATION (HON. MPHOKO): On a point of order Madam Speaker.
THE TEMPORARY SPEAKER: What is your point of order?
HON. MPHOKO: Thank you Madam Speaker. I left Cabinet to come here because you wanted me to be present. Now, you are busy discussing something outside the Bill. Can you please guide us Madam Speaker, that we follow the discussion not any other discussion please. If anybody comes here and talks about something different, rule them out of order please. I left Cabinet to come here and now you are not even making use of me. I thank you.
*THE TEMPORARY SPEAKER: Hon. Members, order. I heard Hon. Chinotimba’s point of order but I would want to correct you. When you rose you said you did not support this Bill. This is why the Speaker said you cannot say you do not support this Bill because it is in the Constitution. You should have pointed out what exactly it is in the Bill that you do not want.
Secondly Hon. Members, listen whilst I explain this other issue – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] – Order, Hon. Members. I am still speaking – [HON. HOLDER: Inaudible interjections.] – Hon. Holder, can you please respect the Chair. Hon. Member, the other issue is that you must not repeat what have been said, the Vice President has heard about it. We want new ideas as regard the input of the Bill; debate around the Bill and not anything. Please do not comment on things that have already been spoken about.
