Six months into the 10th Parliament, the first major piece of legislation—the Telecommunications Bill—will be tabled in the National Assembly by the Alliance For Change (AFC) and this will be done within two weeks.
The ruling PPP/C has not laid any major Bill in the House since the opening of Parliament in January and will require opposition support for the passage of any of its Bills since the combined opposition—AFC and APNU—hold an unprecedented one seat majority in the National Assembly. The President will then have to assent to any Bills passed.
