    "content": "Leader of Government Business, this is a situation in which claims of a magnitude that will probably be the most difficult to deal with in my own history as the Deputy Speaker and Chair in this place----; an allegation was made by a foreign Government and an hon. Member, in line with his own responsibilities and mandate of seeking accountability from the Government, asked a Question on the same. There seems to be a ping pong game going on here to the extent that the Ministry of State for Defence tells us that its hands are tied. Indeed, I must commend the Ministry of State for Defence because it immediately responded. We have communications from the Ministry of State for Defence. They copied to us the communication sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs . The Ministry of State for Defence itself is saying: “We are unable to move forward because we do not have the right response from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs”. What is happening to your Government? Is the Government, indeed, accepting responsibility or liability for this very serious claims against a Government institution, that the military was engaged in drug trafficking in the country? Minister, proceed and give us the information that you think will allay the concerns of the House."
