    "content": "Finally, as I said, since the business of this House takes priority, today is a Special Sitting Day. It may be too late because it is now 12.30 p.m. However, I would request you to consider suspending the matter that is under consideration by the Committee so that Members can focus on the issues that the Leader of the Majority Party called the House to address during this Special Sitting. Hon. Speaker, also consider directing the Committee to prioritise matters pending before it. I particularly mentioned a Statement I had sought and a Question I had filed. There are also other 20 Statement Requests and 55 Questions that are before that Committee. They need to handle those before embarking on headline-chasing matters that only end up embarrassing this House. I must, again, reiterate that we honestly embarrass this House when we allow Members of the Executive – be it a Cabinet Secretary or a Principal Secretary (PS) – to misuse a Committee of this House and the media with full benefit of parliamentary privileges to say things about people who do not sit in that Committee."
