    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker and the Departmental Chair for recognizing that fact and, I think I am very happy about it. I want to say these amendments are quite in order but this country is bleeding because of corruption. If you look at the current situation in this country, you will realise that there is a systematic failure in fighting corruption. If you look at the history of when we started this Commission, you will find that this country has a lot to do when it comes to fighting corruption. When we say we need to give prosecutorial powers to a body that is already entangled with inside fighting, I think it will be a disaster. It is high time we disbanded the Secretariat and this Commission and thought on how this country will fight corruption. Otherwise, corruption is deeply entrenched in our system and it is destroying our fabric economically, politically and socially. We need to find another way of dealing with corruption. This Commission is not working and it is high time we thought otherwise. I want to agree with my colleagues that we have never seen anything tangible since we started to deal with this Commission which is supposed to fight corruption. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support."
