NOOSE AROUND ¨GAY NECKS¨ LOOSENED IN UGANDA: Anglican MP David Bahati´s ¨Anti-Homosexuality¨ bill ignored by Parliament Business Committee


¨Today Uganda's Parliament Business Committee discussed topics to be brought before the Parliament in the next quarter. The Anti-Homosexuality Bill of 2009 was not included.

According to Frank Mugisha, Executive Director at Sexual Minorities Uganda, "information is that the bill can not be debated in a 2nd reading it has to be reintroduced and has to go through all the initial stages."

Frank Mugisha, Executive Director at Sexual Minorities Uganda, monitored the situation at Parliament today. He provided a brief report on Facebook.

There is no SIGN at all that the bill will be discussed today , and it does not appear on the order paper of parliamentary business today, will watch parliament and keep you updated , however information is that the bill can not be debated in a 2nd reading it has to be reintroduced and has to go through all the initial stages...¨ HERE
