    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. With due respect to the Rt. hon. Prime Minister; when he says that Parliament can only act when the Executive has done its bit, that is totally misguided. Only this morning we were dealing with the case of Tana Delta where Parliament is urging the Government to take action. That is purely because the Government has failed. The reason why Parliament is coming up every now and then to urge the Government is because the Government is not able to move. That is why Dr. Nuh said that we are dealing with a wheelbarrow. The mechanism of a wheelbarrow is very simple; you push it, you leave it here and you must push it again the following day. Therefore, the Rt. hon. Prime Minister cannot come and try to look down upon the role of Parliament in overseeing, which includes urging the Government in many occasions to act; it has failed to act in many occasions."
