"content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. I wish to also declare that I support this particular amendment because of several reasons that I feel are not actually taking the right course in this House. Cabinet Secretaries are people who are supposed to be answerable to the nation and especially to the people of this Republic. In most of the cases, you will realize that the only time the Cabinet Secretaries interact with the country is when they are addressing a Press conference, which usually takes something between five to ten minutes. That is not enough to comprehensively answer the questions and the issues that are facing the country. When we bring them to this House of Representatives of the people, they can be answerable for their actions. They can look at the country and answer questions that are asked. When you look at several issues which we have been having, especially on security, we have been bashing the Chair of the Committee on Administration and National Security and trying to squeeze some answers from him. These are people who just go and ask questions and then come back and answer them. They just become conveyor belts."
