"content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. On the same line, I did request a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Foreign Affairs regarding two young girls who were detained in Lebanon. He was supposed to issue the Statement three weeks ago. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I did follow up with the Assistant Minister this morning and his excuse was that the Ministry did not have money. That is because the Permanent Secretary and the Minister are not here and yet, all that the detained girls require is US$5,000. Is it in order for the Minister to avoid bringing the Statement to this House? Could I request the Chair to order that those girls be paid for and repatriated home? This Government is spending a lot of money on foreign trips. The recent one was in Australia where over US$2 million was spent and yet, they cannot pay US$5,000 for girls who are detained in Lebanon. It is a shame!"
