    "content": "They will either have to choose to crucify their man, the President, or Coalition Leader, or let public funds get looted. The Leader of the Majority Party, on the PAC and PIC raw, let the Minority Party take the leadership. The Leader of the Majority Party should negotiate with the Leader of the Minority Party, even if it means leaving for them two slots in other departmental committees. We know that the Majority Party is also doing oversight. All the departmental committees of this House are doing oversight over Government departments. We are only saying that the two watchdog committees’ functions are beyond oversight. There is active and reactive oversight. We are engaged in that kind of oversight. They should lead all those committees. We want to lead only these two watchdog Committees. If the President calls a Jubilee Parliamentary Group (PG) meeting and says that he does not want discussion of the Reports of the Auditor-General and Controller of Budget and immediately thereafter there is whipping generated from the meeting, what will PAC and PIC Members do? They will block all watchdog committee reports. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we would like you to intervene. Get the Leader of the Majority Party, who is now in the House, to see sense and let the chairmanship of the two watchdog Committees to go to CORD. We will then form the committees tomorrow, and will not have to discuss such an important matter again."
