THE sitting of the National Assembly today promises to be “worse than uncertainty that dodges the prospects of a constructive engagement,” Secretary to the Cabinet, Dr. Roger Luncheon, observed yesterday.
Luncheon, also Head of the Presidential Secretariat (HPS), was speaking at his usual post-Cabinet press conference in Office of the President, Shiv Chanderpaul

Drive, Georgetown.
This “madness” by the Opposition can go on and on indefinitely, Luncheon said, in the context of their “obsession” with getting Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee out of office.
“The events of the last sitting and the subsequent antics of the parliamentary opposition provides for an awesome backdrop,” he declared.
While perseverance is ordinarily considered a virtue, Luncheon said the opposition’s obsession with their ‘anti-Roheeism’ defies comprehension.
Today in Parliament, Luncheon prophesied that there will be a “privileged” motion against the minister, an adjournment motion, or one to suspend the Standing Orders. These options would only serve to join the ‘main course of the opposition’ that deals with abuse of the Speaker, furniture banging and premature adjournments, Luncheon remarked.
“And all of this is being done to prevent Rohee from speaking on security sector legislation that is before the House.”
With another adjournment, Luncheon said the House will again delay consideration of those government bills that deal with amendments to the Sexual Offences Act, Deeds and the Commercial Registry Amendment Act, etc.
Luncheon said there is a perception out there that the government is responsible for this situation in Parliament, “a view that would have us believe that this entire episode, this embarrassment, is perpetuated by this administration.
“It defies logic, defies information that is available readily and easily about its origins, interventions that have been made and the way in which the opposition has persevered in the pursuit of this matter,” he remarked.
