When all is said and done, I appreciate the work of this particular Committee and I celebrate them. I was a bit concerned earlier in the sitting when the points of orders were raised and Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale who today has appreciated the work of this Committee; the only part I did not agree with Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale is that he said: “Some people are saying”. He should have actually said, I was the one who raised that particular point of order and said these people had gone this way and I thought about their conduct. However, I believe in the conduct of our colleagues who serve in this particular Committee and they have given us such a wonderful report. I hope when we conclude on it, we shall follow it up. Sen. Mungatana, I like the annexure you attached. It has days showing the periods within which a particular thing needs to be done. I know I have said I am concluding many times, but there are many things that keep coming to my mind. We have had this debate about the Implementation Committee. The argument of those of us that agreed with the dissolution of Senate's Implementation Committee is that we said it is the work of every committee to implement its own work. Therefore, you do not need one committee whose job is just to wait for others to do their work and follow through. Now, the question we must ask ourselves as I go to sit, is; what about Ad hoc Committees? Who follows through with the implementation of Ad hoc Committees? Since, for the other Committees, it is okay and that argument holds, in as much as there are people who still strongly feel that we need to have a Senate Implementation Committee. However, what about the Ad hoc Committees? That is something that we need to resolve. With those many remarks, I support this Report. I thank you."
