    "content": " Hon. Speaker, it is just a follow-up on Questions and Statements. Sorry to take you back. We seem to have a backlog of Questions directed to the Cabinet Secretaries to answer here. I have Questions from the other Session. I have resubmitted close to five or so to the Ministry of Water, Sanitation and Irrigation, the Ministry of Public Service, Performance and Delivery Management, and the Ministry of Roads and Transport. Is it possible you could order or instruct the Leader of the Majority Party to ensure that when we resume after the long recess, they prioritise Questions that have been pending for far too long? We are trying to avoid putting chairpersons of the departmental committees under unnecessary scrutiny because they cannot answer rejoinder questions. If that is the case, we might have to go back to the old system of requesting Statements and asking Questions through the committees. Probably through them, we can have the Cabinet Secretaries and the Principal Secretaries respond to the Questions. Thank you, Hon. Speaker.
