    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. As you have said, some of us have also been in this space for some time. I am not complaining. To me, a committee is a committee. Once you are there you have to serve. However, there are some facts that we must go on record so that as we go into the future, they will inform this House. When the Majority Party Whip was moving this Motion, he did not mention that there were some considerations made because we now have a broad-based Government. I am saying this because I was the Vice-Chairman of the Public Debt and Privatisation Committee for the last two-and-a-half years. As WDM. we agreed that our Members should remain in their respective committees without any movement. I am sure that was the position of my leader in this House, Hon. Mbui. Hon. Speaker, as you can see, I have been moved to another committee. I have no complaints and will serve faithfully. I want leaders in this House to learn. In the 12th Parliament, the Leader of the Majority Party was my Chairman in the Budget and Appropriations Committee. Due to political considerations, he was moved to another committee. I thought that this year he would take this opportunity and make sure that Members are not punished for relating with different individuals.
