Gabriel Tongoyo","speaker":null,"content":" Thank you, Hon. Speaker. You recall last week, I promised the House that the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration would appear before the Committee today to respond to about 18 requests for statements. The Cabinet Secretary wrote a letter to us last evening, indicating that there is an ongoing Cabinet retreat, making him unavailable for today’s meeting. Considering that we will be going for recess, hopefully next week, I need your guidance on what I should do with the requests by Members. It is a big backlog."}
