"content": "Hon. Wamunyinyi, do not answer to some voices from some quarters. We may recognize the voices but do not respond to them. We have adopted a procedure by which we encourage hon. Members who seek certain forms of Ministerial Statements to appear before Committees because it may be easier when they appear there, not to receive answers from the Cabinet Secretaries but to prosecute the matter there in the presence of those Cabinet Secretaries or other technical arms of Government so that if the Statement is one in the form of investigations, then the Committee will come up with a report that makes recommendations on action to be taken. But of course a majority of the Statements being sought are answers and we do not want a Committee Chairman to come here and start reading an answer that a Member is disputing when the hon. Member could have disputed that before the Committee. This is so that if a Committee makes a report to the House, then it is something that has been canvassed properly at that level."
