    "content": " Because if you look at the section from Article 153(4), which was given to us by Sen. Orengo; and it states:- “Cabinet Secretaries shall – (a) act in accordance with this Constitution; and (b) provide Parliament with full and regular reports concerning matters under their control.” So, when Parliament is asking you for this information, it is in recognition of the fact that, in the final analysis, anyway, they need to report back to Parliament. If you look at Article 232, which is about values and principles of public service, Chapter 13, says:- “The values and principles of public service include— (a) high standards of professional ethics; (b) efficient, effective and economic use of resources; (c) responsive, prompt, effective, impartial and equitable provision of services;” I would like to underline the words “impartial” and “equitable.” Nobody should imagine that those days of one party system, just because you come from an Opposition, is a good enough reason for you not to enjoy certain services provided."
