One of this Parliament's many watershed moments in the last five years was the adoption and implementation of the new and overhauled rules of the National Assembly. The adoption of the new rules was a culmination of a lengthy process intended to enhance the governance of the business of the House, and to align it firmly with the Constitution, current conventions and practices. We tightened the rules of debate and rules of conduct of members in the House to ensure consistency and order during sittings of House.
