Speaker of Parliament Anita Among yesterday 10th November 2022, called for investigations into the circumstances under which a report on Uganda Airlines leaked to the public before consideration by the House.
In her communication to Parliament on Wednesday, November 9, 2022, Among said some MPs have made it a habit to leak committee reports before they are presented to the House for debate and adoption.
“We want to know who leaked the report and we want a report from the Leader of Opposition. We are not going to encourage that. How do you leak a report before it is discussed, why do we discuss what has gone out?” Among said.
