    "content": "Could I bring this thing to an end? Please, relax! I think all of you were here three weeks ago and this matter was raised by Mr. Ochilo-Ayacko. He wanted a Ministerial Statement as to the reasons - which I am sure, this is what you are following - for the delay. The Chair went a step higher and demanded the operationalisation. From that moment, it now became the issue of the Chair's directions being obeyed or disobeyed. I am convinced that the Minister has obeyed and I am further convinced that there are sufficient reasons not to pick an earlier date. Otherwise, you can make the operational date tomorrow and you have no operational apparatus. Whatever we seek must be realistic. Whatever we do, we must also ensure that what we do does not cause chaos as a consequence of our rush. Ultimately, this is a matter of the Chair and there is not going to be any further debate. My orders have been obeyed and I am satisfied. I think we will go the next business. Before we do that, as I was waiting to come and deal with this issue, I heard the Chair mention that you may not be able to complete the business of the Committee of the whole House which you will go back to immediately now, the only time you can have an extension of time, is in the full House which is now. The Minister or any hon. Member could apply for extension of time. It is totally at your discretion. What is your reaction, Mr. Attorney-General? September 12, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3903"
