    "content": "want to see whether anything suggested in those rules may have the effect of ousting or throwing them to the wind, or do we still continue following them given that, perhaps, it might be necessary that we seek direction from the courts, even before we declare the Calendar of the Sittings of the House? There are many weighty issues that I thought we need to put together in making that communication. Unfortunately, I will disappoint those of you that expected that ruling to be ready today. It will be ready on Tuesday afternoon next week. However, that does not mean that the powers of any committee of this House to bring legislation and to oversee any arm or institution of Government have been ousted. It has not. So, the committees are still at liberty to proceed to do their oversight work, including considering budgets of all people. The House is at liberty to refuse to consider budgets of those that think that the House has no power to oversee them. Of course, what is good for the goose must be good for the gander. So, the House is at liberty to exercise any of its powers. Hon. Midiwo, you wanted to raise a point of order."
