    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is reassuring to hear the co- ordinator and supervisor of Government operations assure this House that the letter and spirit of the Constitution with regard to the restructuring of the Provincial Administration will be adhered to. However, even as the Prime Minister gives this reassurance to the House, everywhere you go in this country you see new District Commissioners’ offices coming up. You also see the creation of new offices in contradiction to the letter and spirit of the Constitution; specifically, there was appointment of County Commissioners, which is not only unconstitutional, but has been so found by the courts yet this Government, which the Rt hon. Prime Minister supervises and co-ordinates, brazenly disobeys the court order and continues to keep these County Commissioners in office. What assurance can the Prime Minister give us that what he is telling this House will be followed by the Provincial Administration officials on the ground when evidence is that they are not in any way preparing for the restructuring of the Provincial Administration?"
