"content": "From the outset, I oppose the amendment by Hon. Owen Baya. The Public Accounts Committee has done a very good Report. I want to reiterate that if we begin to mutilate this Report in the manner that we are doing, we are going to be ashamed. The amendment that has been proposed by Hon. Baya appears to portray us as gatekeepers for some corrupt public servants. The Committee has clearly explained to us about the Principal Secretary who was in charge when this matter occurred. As a House, we are trying to remove her name. Are we saying that we ignore our role as the people who oversee the Executive? What I want to say is very simple. I plead with our colleagues not to allow any further amendments to this Report. In fact, let us all reject the amendments so that this PAC Report can be intact and be used to oversee the Executive as it has been done."
