"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. To your credit, it appears that we are finally going to occupy this behemoth that has remained with us for some time. In fairness, when issues are raised, I think they are more historical than current. I sit in the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), and I can see that my Chairman is not here. It is important to mention that the issue has arisen before the PAC. My only contribution to this would be that, perhaps, you might consider giving a communication to refer any such matter so that it finds its proper home in the PAC to be considered alongside other matters. I see some of my colleagues from PAC are here. There is need for a forum for ventilation away from the streets and what you called the ‘rejectionist philosophers.’ There should be a proper forum within Parliament so that anyone with any issue, positive or negative, finds a place to ventilate. In my view, the fact that we are finally likely to occupy those offices is a good thing. Even if we occupy them without lifts up to the 25th Floor, it would still be work in progress because it will cause those who ought to install the missing facilities to do so immediately. The longer we do not occupy it, the longer it will take to complete the work. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
