    "content": "Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I only have two issues to raise. The first one is with regard to what Hon. Kamama, the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security, has said. He has said that some Regulations passed through a Committee of this House. I believe the Committee works for and on behalf of this House. I do not remember that Committee tabling any of those Regulations in this House for ratification. The second issue is with regard to what is happening in the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology. The Executive is taking this House for granted. All the powers that they have to make Regulations, are delegated. They do it for and on behalf of Parliament. The Constitution requires them to bring those Regulations to this House for scrutiny and ratification. It is not right for anybody to purport to have made any Regulations without consultation with this National Assembly. You need to give us direction with regard to the pronouncements of the Cabinet Secretary in charge of Education, Science and Technology."
