    "content": "Space Secretariat which is under the Ministry of Defence. If Parliament brings very good recommendations; that institution can replace the Italians at San Marco. I am sure there is a new agreement which is being developed after the June, 14th deadline. Hon. Speaker, Sir, hon. Harrison Kombe asked me how much the Italians are earning; I cannot answer that question. I have answered the question that was sent to me by hon. Ottichilo. That is the question that I forwarded to the Ministry of Defence. It is very interesting; hon. Nkaissery has raised a question on why we should wait for 20 years. I want to tell the House and the country that hon. Nkaissery was a former Assistant Minister for Defence and this was done when he at the helm of this ministerial position. On 5th June, 2012, he was a very able Assistant Minister. So, he should tell us why he signed the extension for one year. With regard to what hon. Onyonka asked, yes, I am sure the bilateral agreements are going on and I am sure on the bit on extension, it is only hon. Nkaissery who can tell us what took place. The Committee can bring a recommendation before that. Hon. James Rege said that there was a very rich investigation done by the previous Parliament and the Committees can pick up from there. I suggest that we can invite the Ministries of Defence and Foreign Affairs to shed light on this matter.On what hon. Gumbo asked, I agree with him that the Committee on Energy, Communication and Information can handle the matter. That is the status report and I wish to lay it on the Table. Hon. Ottichilo and other Members can get copies of this Statement so that we can interrogate the Executive better. We can even call hon. hon. Nkaissery to tell us why he gave the extension."
