Ugandan Opposition MPs to Challenge 'Irregular' Age Limit Debate

A parliamentary debate on a report on a bill which aims to amend Uganda's constitution continues after a dramatic day in which several MPs were thrown out of the house and a parliamentary rule was suspended. The rule states that debate should take place at least three days after a report has been tabled - but the opposition says Speaker Rebecca Kadaga allowed debate earlier than stipulated in the rule.
