    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I can read some of the recommendations of the Committee so that I can guide the Members. One of the recommendations is that corruption at the weighbridges needs to be reported to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) so that it can take action. Secondly, when police officers are transferred from weighbridges these days they do not move out. They opt to retire than being transferred. That shows that there is rampant corruption among police officers. The Committee is recommending that a police officer should not serve at any weighbridge for more than one year. We have also realised, as a Committee, that even Members of this House in a way are not living to the rules they make in this House. You saw sometimes back how some officers were harassed by our colleagues in this House. So, the Committee felt that it is good that we behave as Members of this House."
