"content": "(Hon. (Ms.) Mbarire): Hon. Deputy Speaker, every Member knows that when it comes to chairs of committees, much as you leave it to the committees to elect them, the party plays a very critical role in determining who takes the chair. Having listened to what has been happening in the corridors of this Parliament for the last two weeks you need to know that the male Members are already conniving to take up all the important committees. I am just reminding the Leader of the Majority Party that we have women here who want to lead these important committees. I agree that we need to ensure that we eat well, but women do not need to be reminded of our traditional role even when we get to high offices. If you can nominate men to that committee and have a male Member elected the chairman, I will be very happy. With those remarks, I support and beg that you give us our rightful place."
