    "content": "Hon. Members, indeed, I have noted the concern as raised by the Member for Bahari with respect to the Ministerial Statement that is due this afternoon which by the Order Paper had been allocated time to be delivered during Prime Minister’s Time which commences at 3.00 p.m. We are well into the Prime Minister’s Time as all Members can see, but the position as it stands now is that we, indeed, have received communication from the Prime Minister’s Office indicating that suddenly and without notice, the Prime Minister had to go elsewhere to attend to Government business. It is official business that I am satisfied that it is necessary that it be transacted by the Prime Minister at this time. He has requested that he issues this Statement on Wednesday next week. However, hon. Members, taking into account all the prevailing circumstances, the interest as expressed by the Members in this matter, I invoke the powers that are vested in me by the Standing Orders and direct that the Prime Minister delivers this Statement tomorrow at 2.30 p.m. Prof. Saitoti, I want to give you that assignment to brief the Prime Minister so that he brings that Statement tomorrow in the afternoon."
