Francis Gimara, Prof. Gerald Karyeija from the Uganda Management Institute and Godbar Tumushabe the Executive Director of Advocates Coalition for Development and Environment.<\/p>\n<p>The debate was also attended by the Uganda Peoples\u2018 Congress(UPC) and Democratic Party Presidents, Hon. Jimmy Akena and Norbert Mao respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Oulanyah asked the civil society to bring proposals and articulate trade issues of the economy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou keep restricting yourself to the Justice, Law and Order Sector; there are other sectors that we need to focus our debates on besides politics, we need to stop this blame game and focus on the issues that really matter,\u201d Oulanyah said.<\/p>\n<p>He further emphasised the need for civil society to influence but not to control Parliament and what it does.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInfluence what Parliament does because that might be more productive than actually thinking you can dictate what goes on here; civil societies should form a coalition to participate in activities of sectoral committees,\u201d Oulanyah added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy don\u2019t you bring the people\u2019s will through the public hearings at the process of the Bill and Budget appropriation?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n<p>Oulanyah told the civil society to use their current situation to bring on board their ideas because they are out-numbered by the government.<\/p>\n<p>The Deputy Speaker said that the help of the civil society is to assess and help put the Parliament in line.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to discuss issues that touch our lives besides politics; we need to focus on issues regarding the economy, the infrastructure, the social issues and the budget so that we can find a way of creatively influencing the Parliament,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Ssekagya said that Parliament is meant to safeguard the Constitution to promote good governance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Constitution should not be easily and frequently amended to prevent the Executive from abusing it and using it to its advantage. It is supposed to fight for the observance of the Constitution,\u201d she said, adding that, \u201cParliament must be an oversight arm to observe the rule of law, equitable distribution of resources and make sure it gets feedback on the activities of the government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2811\" src=\"http:\/\/ugmirror.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/oula4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ugmirror.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/oula4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/ugmirror.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/oula4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ugmirror.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/oula4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ugmirror.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/oula4-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Ssekagya added that there is need for Parliament to have enough resources and knowledge to lead the people.<\/p>\n<p>Prof Karyeija also added that an MP represents aggregated voices because of the different people in every constituency and therefore, they ought to capture all these voices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cParliament is a vibrant institution; it has shown that I can speak the truth but many times the public feels that its voice gets lost in politicking,\u201d he said and urged MPs to improve participatory democracy just like such a debate.<\/p>\n<p>Prof. Karyeija added that civil society needs to be involved in decisions taken by the Parliament and the decision making.<\/p>\n<p>Gimara on the other hand made a submission noting that Parliament has a very loud voice in the Constitution and should redeem it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cParliament has a very loud voice in the Constitution and it must reclaim that voice to serve the citizenry,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>Tumushabe said that Parliament needs to be assertive on the issue of public service delivery by aiding government to produce more professionals in the service delivery chain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to change the economic system of this government by abandoning the trickle down system because it has proven to be ineffective; Parliament should demand a much more robust plan on how economic issues are handled in the country,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Hon. Jimmy Akena said that the Executive should tackle many of the resource issues because they end up reflecting badly on Parliament and becoming a burden on its members.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe voices of the people are heard by MPs for example through availing ambulances to ease the issues instead of raising the issues on the Floor of Parliament and paying school fees for their constituents. We feel pressure of our constituents struggling to educate their children because the resources are hard to find,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that the problem is the fact that the country has a presidency which has dominated all aspects of the Parliament.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to make sure that we learn to survive without the dominance of the President. We need to make our Parliament independent,\u201d Akena noted.<\/p>\n<p>Hon. Nobert Mao said that Parliament needs to administer a poll for the public to assess the extent it has fulfilled its roles.<\/p>\n<p>The Leader of the Opposition, Hon. Winfred Kiiza said that together with the civil society, Parliament is supposed to keep government in check and hold it accountable.<\/p>\n<p>Kiiza said that MPs also need guidance at times of the people out there to help them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSometimes, we do not have the capability to articulate issues accurately. We need to be properly mentored so that we can come out to be proper people\u2019s representatives,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>She noted that there is a need for a forum to mentor young people to become future leaders instead of having people who are going to be bulldozed.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Source:\u00a0<a class=\"pathway\" href=\"http:\/\/www.parliament.go.ug\/index.php\/about-parliament\/parliamentary-news\">Parliamentary News<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Jacob Oulanyah has urged the civil society to support Parliament through solution-based and constructive debate rather than criticising the institution.
