    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to support this Motion. First, allow me to congratulate the Committee for doing a very good job within a very short time. All of us watched the joint committee sitting until late, trying to unearth what led to the demolitions of these houses and also to unearth the rot that is in our Government Ministries. Let me say from the onset, that I would like to go back to what led to the two committees being asked to look into this matter. It is very sad that this Government acted with such kind of insensitivity. It is not even the question of who owns the land, but it is a question of how do you carry out a Government operation? If citizens of this country own land which the Government feels belongs to it and the citizens have already developed the land that the Government should have protected from the word go, if that is the case, one would have expected that the Government to carry out a process that is civil in nature. What we say as we described it then was really barbaric but that is history. I want to now come straight to the recommendations of the Committee and to discuss the report itself."
