    "content": "Order! Order! Hon. Members, I have listened to the views of the Minister with respect to whether or not he can answer or should answer Question No. 3 by Private Notice. Among other things, the Minister has said that this Question may touch on matters pertaining to security. I have subsequently listened to other hon. Members who have spoken to the matter, beginning with Amb. Affey, hon. Kapondi, hon. Mututho, hon. Bahari, hon. Farah Maalim and finally, hon. Sirat. I have heard that the common concern running through the submissions by all these hon. Members is that the Question relates to matters that are sensitive and that may very easily lead to a breach of security. It may not be in the interests of hon. Members of Parliament, as leaders in this nation, to have this matter discussed in plenary and, therefore, within the hearing of the public. Our Standing Orders have provisions to cover situations such as this. That would be found in Standing Order No.214. So, the right way to proceed with this matter would be for hon. Kapondi, who is the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security, and who first alluded to a possibility of this matter"
