    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. We canvassed this matter in the House Business Committee (HBC). This morning, it was an agenda in our Parliamentary Group meeting, on the commitment of our Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons. As you have rightly said, if the Chairperson is not there, there is no reason why the Vice- Chairperson should also not be there. As a House, we are all very frustrated with the performance of our Chairpersons. Hon. Speaker, I want to put it on record that they have now done a full cycle of one calendar year as Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons of committees. Members are at liberty without interference from the Office of the Leader of the Majority Party or the Whip to put in place Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons who will work and be available in the House. That is the only way we will have Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons who are committed to their work."
