Btv to air live Parliamentary debates

Parliament on Friday passed a motion calling for the live airing of Parliamentary debates tabled by Selebi Phikwe West Member of Parliament Gilson Saleshando. The motion seeks to give voters access to Parliament sessions.

Saleshando said the live broadcasts would encourage members of the public to take a keen interest in Parliamentary business to help reduce voter apathy.Commenting on the motion, Kanye North MP Kentse Rammidi said people should know their representatives, emphasising that most of the time the electorate votes without knowing what MPs stand for.
