    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, I support the Committee on Sports, Culture and Tourism through the Chair and sympathise with them for the frustrations they may have gone through because of the other part of Parliament intervening on matters that are supposed to be handled by this House. Hon. Deputy Speaker, the Committee on Labour and Social Services has a similar case. In April this year, the Senate went to Saudi Arabia to investigate some matters on labour that are supposed to be investigated by this House. They stayed there for 10 days and for the last eight months they have not come up with any report. When they heard this House had gone to Saudi Arabia on a serious investigation, they quickly released the report. In that report they urged the CS to implement the recommendations. We are now at a crossfire because we are also coming up with our report. They have a report and it has landed on the CS’s desk and he is wondering whether to deal with the Senate’s or this House’s report. This is something that needs to be taken by the House so that CS’ can be clear on who has the mandate to handle some of these things."
