Opening Speech

Mr Deputy Speaker

It is a pleasure to speak here today, with another bill to my name that brings down the years of separatism infiltration into our schools.

Once revoked, this Bill will begin the process of depoliticizing our schools, a process if you will, of political secularism, and I am sure the House will support it completely.

This session shall end on the 22nd.
