"content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to agree with hon. Keynan that Members are seeking clarifications based on these Statements. Whether it is the Leader of Majority Party or Chair of a Committee, you must be ready to clarify issues on the Statement that you either table or you have read out. Outside that Statement is what hon. Keynan is talking about. That is the supplementary question. It will not be of any value to the House for me to bring a Statement and just dump it here. The Leader of Majority Party, the Chairs of the Departmental Committees or the Leader of Minority Party must be ready to answer clarifications from the Members on the Statements that they bring. You must read the Statement you have brought before the House. You must have sat with the Executive and asked questions. You must anticipate the questions Members will ask. Some of us are not in Parliament to be conveyer belts. We do not want to become a conveyer belt between the Executive and Parliament. We want to bring, stand and defend what we have. I am sure that is within the communication issued by the Speaker."
