    "content": " Yes, Hon. Speaker, I want to also make some comments. I think what Hon. T.J. Kajwang’ has raised are two fundamental issues regarding whether it is appropriate to have this Motion before us. He has raised the concern of whether we have a Committee of Ways and Means. The question he is asking is whether we have established the committee as a House. Article 124 of the Constitution clearly says that Parliament has to establish a Committee of Ways and Means. So to me, that is the fundamental question that he is asking. The second one is asking the constitutionality of the Provisional Collection of Duties and Taxes Act. He is asking whether it is still constitutional, whether the provisions of that Act can still be applied in the current set up. I think those are the two fundamental issues."
