    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I am shocked when my colleagues say that they are going on recess to go home and perform other duties. I thought we are going on recess so that we can look at the estimates which are in front of this House. I am very sure that almost all Members will be back here in their Committees. It is only that we will be on recess and we will not have Plenary. So, when I hear my friends say that they are going to see their constituents, maybe, it is good they be informed that we expect them to be in their Committees looking at the estimates because estimates and budgets are very important for this country. I hope they are saying that because they are in the Plenary, but I think we are going on recess so that we can retreat to our committees and look at the budget estimates. That is because this country has to run whether we have elections or not. With those very few remarks, I thank everybody. We have passed so many Bills during the last two weeks. They are very important Bills for this country. Although the Chamber was always almost half empty, I want to say that it is good that people go on recess and retreat to their committees and do the budget estimates because this country has to run whether we are there or not. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
