    "content": ". So, that is why sometimes, you see differences arising. Yes, I exercised powers conferred upon me as a Prime Minister by Section 15 of the Constitution and Section 4 of the National Accord. This gives the Prime Minister the powers to supervise and co-ordinate functions of Government, including those of Ministries. We assume that powers to supervise also go with powers to discipline. There is no reason why you will be a nyapara if you cannot discipline those who are under you. So, those powers are not delegated to the Prime Minister. They are conferred in the office of the Prime Minister by the Constitution. But the reasons why problems arose was that there is provision in the National Accord for consultations. We did not consult wide enough or sufficiently. So, all I wanted to assure the hon. Members here is that we, as a Government, are still consulting on this issue. Once we finish our consultations, I will inform the House appropriately in the near future."
