"content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. First, I want to appreciate the Prime Minister’s response to some of the issues that have been raised but is it really in order for him to say that the Executive is constrained by the processes yet in many of the Commissions; the shared Executive has the sole prerogative of nominating the chairpersons? With the exception of the appointment of the Chairperson to the National Police Commission, which is hanging, the Executive has invariably left out the Coast Province. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not speaking on my own. People are crying out there. Questions are being asked. Why is it that there is no chairperson or vice-chairperson of even a single independent Commission from the Coast Province? I expect the Prime Minister to go and do his research and do something about this, because these are the issues which are boiling in this country. So, is it in order for the Prime Minister to say that the two principals are constrained by the appointment process yet he and the President are supposed to, jointly, nominate the chairpersons of some of the independent Commissions?"
