    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I want you to rule from the Chair because you have authority over us in regard to this matter. One year down the line, a Chairperson of a Committee cannot be new. As these investigations go on, Committee Chairperson cannot go and address Committee issues in the Press Centre, leaving behind the Members of the Committee. A Committee Chairperson can only talk on behalf the Committee. No Committee Chairperson or an individual Member of a Committee expresses his opinion on a matter that is before the Committee. We have a scenario where Members who are sitting in a Committee talk about the deliberation of Committee at funeral gatherings. The only person who can talk on any issue is Mr. Speaker, under Standing Order No.1. You are given that authority. None of us here has that authority – so that we behave with decorum. At the end of the day, we shall have you and all of us to thank for a job-well-done with taxpayers’ money. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
