    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chair, in fact, if you look at the Constitution, there is a clear provision on how administrative action should be taken, and the manner in which you are supposed to get reprieve in case an administrative action has been taken by an officer and there is mal-administration. We have even passed here a human rights committee – the Administrative Justice Commission - that will be dealing with the issues. So I want to agree with Mr. Imanyara that we will really be prolonging the appeals process. In fact, for me, I would like to see the Cabinet Secretary make a decision. If, for example, the country has decided that so and so is a persona non grata, then it is the Cabinet Secretary who should make that decision. We need quick and fast action; not to go through tribunals and whatever. If he feels there is something wrong, he can go to the High Court as the Minister has provided. But because of security issues, I think we should have a clear specific administrative authority that deals with that matter conclusively. So, I agree with Mr. Imanyara that we should remove the tribunal."
