    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to respond in two ways as follows:- (i) In terms of Statements made by Members of the Government apportioning blame on who is not doing what, I would like to take those as personal statements and not Government Statements. People are entitled to their own opinions in terms of what they say. All the other Statements are made within this Statement. (ii) In terms of the Bills that are coming, today, the Cabinet approved the Supreme Court Bill, which will be published shortly and will be coming to the House for debate, and the Independent Offices Bill, that creates the offices of the Controller and Auditor- General and the Controller of Budget. Again, that will then be coming to the House for debate. Within the Statement, I have indicated the ones that are already here, namely; the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission Bill and the others. But until they have gone through the processes as was agreed as it involves several stakeholders from the Commissions and the Committee, they cannot come to the House. At this point, we can only bring what has already been cleared through the House Business Committee, which has been scheduled, but then there is still a lot more in the processing out there. There will be that business for this House to consider."
