    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, why I raise this and seek the clarification of the Chair is that previously and because of pressure of time, we have had occasion where reports are tabled in the House, circulated to the Members without having all the details of that report. We already have a precedent where we debated a report of the Appointments Committee without having had access to the minutes, even though we proceeded on the knowledge and the assurance of the Leader of the Majority Party that he had indeed, tabled the minutes and the minutes were already a record of the House. So, without belaboring the point, if at the point of tabling this report a copy of the minutes was placed on the Table of the House and received by the Clerk to the National Assembly, and because of pressure of time the same was not availed to the Members, then that would not be reason enough to defeat the intention of the Standing Order No.190. Therefore, with due respect, I would wish to know whether at the point of tabling, a copy of the minutes was tabled to accompany the report, if he could give that guidance."
