Speaker, Indeed, I have been in touch with the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning. At some point, I said I was not going to be available because I was going to be out of town. However, I never said the Question should not be asked. I am more than willing for the Committee to still invite the respondent to respond to the Question. I never said that since I was not available at that particular time, I was not going to be available any other time. I am available at any other given time and I am keen to get answers to the same Question. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
