"content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this matter came before the House last week and it had been directed to the Ministry of Trade. The Ministry of Trade then said that they were not competent to answer this Question and that it should be redirected to another Ministry. It was then directed to us as the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Finance. The Ministry of Finance does not deal with maize. The issues of maize are squarely in the Ministry of Agriculture. This is because it is the Ministry of Agriculture which deals with production, storage and marketing of maize, including its by-products. Because of this, we have written to the Ministry of Agriculture and to Parliament asking them to deal with this issue. We could only have dealt with this issue if we were under a price control regime which is not the case. Since we do not control prices anymore, the issue of why prices should not go down or up is not dealt with by us. So, the Ministry of Agriculture deals with marketing. They are fully in charge and we have asked them to deal with this Question."

Several Ministries said that the Question was not within the mandate of their Ministries. The Chair on that date ruled that the Government should go and consult, then come up with a satisfactory answer. Today is Wednesday and the ruling that was made has not been fulfilled. Would I be in order to request the Chair to make a ruling on this Question because it seems that it is like a father who is avoiding to provide and protect his children? The Government has the responsibility to protect its citizens."

Last week, I am sure you were in the House when this matter was referred again on the same pretext that another Ministry should deal with it. This country has a Prime Minister who is the coordinator of Government affairs. How long is the House going to be treated to issues of “this Question does not belong here or there” and yet it can be referred to the Prime Minister to coordinate just like he is coordinating the Government? They are taking the House for a ride. Are they in order?"
