"content": "I also have a problem with the terminology or the wordings. Our clerks also need to use words that make sense. When they say “reprimand”, the question “By who?” arises. How do you reprimand a Principal Secretary? Who reprimands a Principal Secretary? As a House, we need to be bold. The Principal Secretary at the National Treasury is not an ordinary Principal Secretary. To me, he is a super Principal Secretary. If we feel he is not discharging his responsibility, I would be more comfortable if the Committee recommends that we remove him from office. Such recommendation would make a lot of sense. We then debate. When we talk about “reprimand” or “hold to account”, sometimes it is even difficult to understand. So, I plead with the House that we support the amendment because the Committee had observed that the matter has been resolved."
