    "content": "Hon. Speaker, since this House came into being, we have actually grappled with the issue of holding the Executive to account. A lot of times, the Membership of this House have sought for Statement from fellow Members of Parliament in the name of Chairs of Committees. Ordinarily, it is very hard to interrogate your colleagues in the National Assembly, who are not members of the Executive. Therefore, we called upon the Committee to look for ways of having this House hold the Executive to account. Therefore, I want to just support this Committee. I am happy that the Committee went ahead to benchmark to see what was happening in other jurisdictions. I have confidence that, with this procedure in place, we will make good use of our time."
