At the outset, I want to support this Motion and to say that I am not very happy about the changes. I have checked with the Leader of the Minority Party or the Chief Whip. I want to put it on record because he could be treating me to some advance public relations. I belong to only Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. When I made noise, I was given some auxiliary appointment to represent the interest of the party or CORD at Powers and Privileges Committee. It is an opportunity which you know I have served with gusto because you are my Chairman. I was not consulted. All of a sudden, I realised that my good friend, the Member of Parliament who is also the Deputy Leader of the Minority Party, Hon. Jakoyo Midiwo, whose name appears in almost in every committee by virtue of his position, has replaced me in this committee reverting me to where I used to be as a member of only one committee."}
