"content": " Hon. Senators, there are matters that I think are subject to discussion at Select Business Committee (SBC). Let us not handle them at a plenary. Going forward, your concerns have been harvested. Certainly, when the SBC sits to discuss these matters, we will be able to give a proper and firm way forward on this matter. It is our first session handling Questions. As Sen. Cherarkey has said, it is a learning curve and we want to see how it goes today, take the experience we have had today and as we sit as the SBC, we will see using this experience going forward, how to better the question time. Before I discharge the CS for Lands, Public Works, Housing and Urban Development, CS one of the issues that have been raised is the fact that you filed your response late. According to our Standing Orders, you were supposed to file your response 24 hours before plenary. Therefore, as you retire, the next time you are called upon to respond to Questions, make sure you file your written responses 24 hours before plenary. Additionally, as you rise to respond to the Questions, make sure you read verbatim what you have filed and then thereafter you can actually make supplementary responses by giving additional information. However, in the first attempt to your response, you must read your response verbatim and thereafter you can supplement it with any other information. Hon. Senators, I think we will leave it at that and proceed to the next question. I may now proceed to discharge the CS for Lands, Public Works, Housing and Urban Development. As the CS for Lands, Environment and Natural Resources retires and as we wait for the next CS, I will allow Sen. Dullo --- you are rising on points of order? Just say your points of clarification because if you rise on a point of order, I will not allow you. Proceed, Sen. Dullo."
