    "content": "The amendment I had preferred to recommendation No.5 before I met the Committee is not adequate to cure what the House is now dealing with. If you look at my amendment, you will note that I still mention the Director of Criminal Investigations. We had agreed that we should single out a body which should investigate appropriately. When you look at the end of my proposed amendment, I also fall short in the same manner. I propose that the Report of the Committee should come back to the National Assembly. In our subsequent discussions with the Chair of the Committee, I mentioned that this Report should go to the DPP for appropriate action. In short, I am saying that we are in a situation where both the amendments by the Committee and those I had proposed to bring forth do not cure everything we want to cure. If we lose a report of an oversight committee of this House, I would be worried. It pushes me, therefore, to request something. This is what I asked the Chairman of the Committee. I do not know whether the House will permit these Regulations to be brought to the House. They need to be looked at to cleanse the procurement process. In the exercise of your powers, we are pushing you to give directions on the lawfulness and constitutionality of these few matters that the Committee needs to clean-up, so that we do not lose the goodwill of the Committee."
