    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I just wanted to report to you that we have also taken what you have just communicated now with a lot of concern. This morning, the Leader of the Majority Party and I had the opportunity to, at length, see how we can work out a way in which we can be able to have those reports come very quickly to the House. We noted that since we are going on recess, we really need to move fast. We asked the Chairs of those specific Committees to make sure that by the time we come back, we should be having the reports ready for the House to process. The only small problem that we have is about the systems which are not open yet. The Chairs made a request that for a few of those committees like the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning and the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock and others that have a lot of work, we can find a way of making them go for a retreat and come back with all those reports ready. I am sure some of the committees like that of Finance and National Planning were bogged down by the fact that there has been very heavy workload in the last few days because of the budget. However, they have promised that they are going to do it very quickly. We also did another thing. We tasked the clerk of the Liaison Committee to liaise with the House Business Committee and also the clerks from the Table Office. It is so that we can make sure that the Chairs with any pending matter before the House can deal with them. So, you will not have a situation where you have a matter here and the Chair and also the Vice-Chair are not there. However, Hon. Speaker, we continue to thank you for the support that you are giving committees and we promise that when we come back, especially if we get those few committees to retreat, we will be able to come with better news. Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker."
