"content": "Secondly, this is likely to happen again and again. You sat as the SBC and agreed that the Cabinet Secretary for Gender, Culture, the Arts and Heritage was supposed to appear at 11.00 a.m. However, if we take what the Senate Majority Leader said and we have no reason to doubt, it now appears that there was further communication from the Cabinet Secretary that she will appear from noon. Mr. Speaker, Sir, for guidance, how was that communication done? Was it in writing or it was just a conversation and it was agreed that she will come at noon? We do not lament because we want to lament. We lament because we are in trouble. If we find ourselves in this situation, what do we do? Did she write to say that she will come at noon or did she call and say that she will come at noon? What then will stop the other Cabinet Secretaries from altering the time they will appear by just placing a call to your office of the Office of the Majority Leader and saying, good people, I was supposed to come at 9.00 a.m., but I will be appearing at noon or at 11.00 a.m. The House can do whatever it wants to do and wait for me to appear at noon. Mr. Speaker, Sir, let us correct this. I thank you."
