"content": "direct the Chairs of Committees to create a relationship with the Office of the Senate Majority Leader. I have tried to make very strong arguments. I have lost on several occasions. The Chair has ruled differently because there is no way, I am no angel, unless the Chair directs. The Chair should direct that if a Chair of a Committee has a responsibility and cannot, for one reason or the other, bring an answer to this House, they require the Majority Leader to intervene, then they should bring it to my attention, otherwise, I would be trespassing on the committee work. We wanted some hygienic and sane relationships for the better performance of the relationships in this House. The indication I got from the two rulings from the Chair on this matter is that the Committee Chairs are on their own. The Standing Orders say that questions should be directed to the Chairs of Committees. I am happy with that bit because I do not want to be all over the place. However, when committee Chairs do not deliver, then the Senate Majority Leader takes responsibility and yet they have no obligation, whatsoever, to report to me. How should I know what to do to support the Chairs of Committees?"
