    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I thank you for the direction, particularly regarding the committed Members of this House. It is true that every Member is entitled to a Committee. This matter regarding membership of Committees had been raised sometimes back. We have some Members in this House who are in one Committee. Others are in two Committees. We have others in three or four Committees. There was a skewed way of allocating Members to Committees. When you raised this matter, it was agreed that it was going to be harmonised. I am happy that the Chair of the Committee on Selection is here. As we move to recess, it is important that you give direction on when this issue is going to be harmonised so that the principle of equity can be applied. There are Hon. Members in four or five Committees. They are not even adding much value because you cannot be in four Committees and others are missing or are in one. I seek your direction. Thank you."
