"content": "You might have been misinterpreted. When I read it, I could not believe it. I know Hon. Members are very busy but they cannot jump from one Committee to another for purposes of getting the small allowances. These Members are very busy and I am sure that the paper must have misquoted you. So, we need them to come and apologise because these Hon. Members are very busy. They cannot jump from one Committee to another. After reading it, one of the Members of Parliament in that country asked me: “Is it true your Speaker said that?” I told them that Article 34 of the Constitution talks about freedom of the media. But freedom of the media does not mean it misreports. I am sure, Hon. Speaker, you need to pronounce yourself on this because I highly doubt you said it. It has actually been burning. I know the PSC is there to take care of the welfare of Members and you have been on the frontline of improving the welfare of these parliamentarians in terms of research and offices. At the later stage, if you do not mind, it will be nice for you to clarify this allegation because I know you were misquoted."
