    "content": "It is not possible! If that was possible, I can assure you we would have had other trade unionists in the commission, but it is not the case. There were political considerations. I want to tell you that we will stand firm. I want to be on record on this: The interests of hon. Members and staff come first. This is a political commission and it must be given the weight it deserves; especially by hon. Members themselves and those who are in the Executive. At all times, the institutional independence of Parliament must be respected and the only way it can be respected is, if Parliament works. For it to work, there must be funds and this is the only route. There must be adequate funds. If there is enough funding, all the other issues that we are raising right now will not be there. The issue of offices, technical staff and professional consultancy services will not be there. Therefore, I want to ask hon. Jimmy Angwenyi to second this Motion.
