    "content": " Hon. Senators, we had scheduled seven questions for response by three Cabinet Secretaries today this morning. These are: The Cabinet Secretary for Roads and Transport, the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and Economic Planning and the Cabinet Secretary for Gender, Culture, Arts and Heritage. However, at a sitting yesterday of the Senate Business Committee (SBC), we considered two letters, one from the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and Economic Planning and another from the Cabinet Secretary for Roads and Transport, indicating that they will not be able to be present today for purposes of responding to the queries. The reasons they gave were found to be valid by the SBC. Therefore, those questions relating to Ministry of Roads and Transport and the Ministry of National Treasury and Economic Planning will be rescheduled to a later date. Hon. Senators, that leaves us with the Cabinet Secretary for Gender, Culture, Arts and Heritage. Now, this morning, I received a letter signed by the Hon. Cabinet Secretary, Aisha Jumwa, indicating that due to a conflicting schedule, she will not be able to attend the session for purposes of responding to the Question relating to her Ministry. Hon. Senators, we do not have a Cabinet Secretary this morning to respond to these Questions. Therefore, Question Time naturally collapses and we shall move to transact other businesses as scheduled in the Order Paper."
