Since its first sitting in January 2012,Wholesale Jerseys China, the Tenth Parliament has been one filled with drama as its members struggled over the unusual situation where the combined Opposition held a one-seat voting majority.There have been walkouts, a vote of no-confidence, and refusal by President Donald Ramotar to assent key Bills on the grounds that they are unconstitutional.There have been questions whether enough work has been done in the 10th Parliament.Along the way, there have been criticisms that not much work has been done in what is Guyana’s biggest stage where laws are made.The 65-member National Assembly is currently on a two-month annual break and due to reconvene next month.In total, there were 62 sittings, according to figures provided by staffers at the Parliament.

In total, 56 resolutions were passed from motions tabled by both sides.Last year, according to information from Parliament, there were just 12 bills that were made into law.

However, because of ongoing negotiations between Government, Digicel and GT&T,China Jerseys Online, the debate of the bills have been delayed.Also in limbo are the anti-money laundering Bills which are set to be debated in the next session, which starts in October. Failure to pass the Bills in time for a November deadline set by international anti-money laundering bodies could very well see Guyana attracting financial sanctions that could affect banking and money transfer transactions.A major piece of legislation that was voted down by the Opposition was the Firearms Amendment Bill, which Government insisted is critical to reducing gun crimes in the country.Another legislation change that ended up in trouble was the Former Presidents (Benefits and other Facilities) Bill 2012,Cheap Jerseys From China, and the Fiscal Management and Accountability (Amendment Bill) 2012.The latter seeks to restore the Constitutional status of the “independent entities”,NFL Cheap Jerseys China, under the Constitution.These include the Guyana Elections Commission, the Courts, the Office of the Ombudsman and other such agencies.The Former President (Benefits and other Facilities) Bill of 2012 seeks to cap the various benefits granted to former Presidents and thus protect taxpayers’ money.With the reduction of the National Budget by the Opposition two years in a row, the situation in the National Assembly has been more than tense as both sides of the House battle for ground on legislation.The situation took a turn for the worse when the Opposition blocked two pieces of legislation for the Amaila Falls Hydro Project, leading to the Government saying that the venture was dead until a new investor is found.With the administration making it clear that it will not okay some of the more important legislation tabled by the Opposition, it is unlikely any improvements will happen in a hurry in the next Parliamentary session.Already, the Opposition has said it has done what it was voted in for.“We have been asking lots of questions…on the radio licences; the airport expansion; the Marriott…so many other issues. We have tabled many motions and it is democracy at its best. We have had no confidence motions. It is settling differences in the National Assembly rather than on the streets,” said Leader of the Alliance For Change, Khemraj Ramjattan, on the performance of the 10th Parliament.
