    "content": "Because you misbehaved! Hon. Speaker, from the list we received this morning from both Whips, the Majority Whip of the Jubilee Coalition, Hon. Katoo ole Metito, did not make any changes. There are a few changes from the other coalition. Very good reasons were given why those changes were made and they are in line with the Standing Orders. This afternoon, I have tabled very important documents, including the Budget Policy Statement (BPS). This is a Committee that has an urgent matter. With your indulgence, I hope they can do their elections tomorrow and elect the chair and the vice-chair, so that they can start the budget-making process, which begins with the tabling of the BPS which we did this afternoon. It has a deadline of 15th February 2016. The Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury submitted it to the National Assembly on Friday. I am sure the men and women who served in this Committee, just like any other Committee, have done very well and we are happy with their work. Whether you are the Leader of the Majority Party, Leader of the Minority Party or Chair of a Committee, it is important to note that it is a privilege that has been given to you by your colleagues in this House. Anybody in this House can serve in any Committee and leadership position. Those who are in the Budget and Appropriations Committee are equal to the task as those who are in the Departmental Committees on Transport, Public Works and Housing, Energy, Communication and Information, Public Accounts and Public Investments. Because of the urgency of the matter, we decided to have a Supplementary Order Paper to include the reconstitution of the Committee. We cannot have the BPS and all the medium term The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
