    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to thank the Minister for the answer. But I did not receive my copy of the written reply. That really puts me in a very awkward position to ask her supplementary questions. But having listened very carefully, I want to say that I was not just interested in the disaster components and what we are going to do. I am interested in the state of preparedness. What is the state of Disaster Operation Centre at the headquarters? Can it handle a disaster when it happens? There are various components of disasters. I asked about man-made and natural disasters. I am happy that the Minister has dwelt at length on natural disasters such as famine and drought. I think there is some capacity to handle this disaster although the time lag needs to be improved on. But what is our capacity in terms of man-made disasters such terrorism and collapsed buildings? What is our capacity to conduct medical evacuations? This is about the entire country. We always have flooding in the Kano Plains and we will also watch them. What is the state of our preparedness to counter Budalangi floods? How do you define disasters and when will you bring the Draft Policy to the House?"
