    "content": "I think the hon. Member for Chepalungu was just trying to be mischievous. But on a more serious note, the House Business Committee is a committee of the House; it is not a Government department or committee. So, that Committee sits and in its own wisdom, decided to prepare the Order of business for the House for the whole of this week. The Government has no control over it. Secondly, the hon. Member is talking about a report; again, that report is before the House Business Committee. It has discretion to decide to bring whatever report it wants to bring before the House. I have mentioned that there is a lot of business that has already been passed by the cabinet, which is supposed to be coming before this House, but it has not matured. In any case, there is a much more important business before this House, which the Draf Constitution. But as I know, we are still trying to develop a kind of a consensus before that business comes before the House. So hon. Members, Back-Benchers need to be grateful to the Government that instead of us today, on a Thursday afternoon, discussing Government Business, we have allowed private members business to be discussed during Government time."
