    "content": "Indeed, this has been our practice since the establishment of the two committees. As a matter of fact the Public Accounts Committee is the oldest of our committees and exists in many other jurisdictions, even outside the commonwealth. The committee therefore enjoys an almost unfettered ranking, not just in our Parliament but also in those other jurisdictions where the committee exists; similarly the Public Investments Committee was introduced in our committee system during the term of the Seventh Parliament. The Committee therefore enjoys ranking order close to that of the Public Accounts Committee. However, let me indicate from the outset that the ranking order, I have referred to does not in anyway imply that these two committees are superior to any other committee of the House. It is nevertheless important that we recognize their place in our House and in the history of our young democracy. I therefore, will not expect these two Committees to appear to be at conflict as to what matters fall under them that has always been clear. That, now in my view should settle the first and second questions raised."
