    "content": "Of course, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I know you know me. The names of the members we were given are persons of great repute. I am very happy that even the women who applied are of very good academic qualifications and repute. I wish we were able to take all of them including Koki Muli and others. Unfortunately, we were not able to get everybody on board. However, she is a person who is outstanding. I wish we could recognize that. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would only want to add that in relation to Mr. Philemon Mwaisaka Wawaka, we questioned him on the issue of an allegation that he might have grabbed land. We were questioning him because it has come before this House in the past. He convinced the Committee that the matter came before court and went to the level of Court of Appeal and he won the case. Therefore, there is no issue of land grabbing attached to him. As Mr. Namwamba indicated, we went at length to the issues relating to Mrs. Catherine Muma and we were convinced with very good and cogent presentation that she gave us that the matter attaching to her is civil in nature and is not criminal. It does not touch her integrity. With those few remarks, I beg to second."
