    "content": "I sit in the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing. The reason I decided to stay and contribute is because I do not know what we are discussing. As a Member of that Committee, we had opportunity to meet the two institutions, namely, KAA and KQ. We were able to interrogate the matter and we were given a document. So, we got an approval to go on a retreat for four days. I am sure the document must be a policy or proposal. The main problem with this Report, in my view, is that PIC is acting prematurely. I looked at the Report tabled before us by the Committee and unless everything was not disclosed, it is a one-page document. In my view, it did not have any content. It was talking about takeover of KAA by KQ. Therefore, as a Committee, mandated to look at the operations and policies of the two organisations, I do not understand. I have listened to what senior Members have said and the Vice-Chair of the PIC, who also happens to be a Member of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing and I think there was a lot of confusion. You saw he had nothing to say. He did not have the content and facts. Therefore, this matter has been politicised both in this House and outside. I ran into Members who were caucusing and lobbying for this Report to be passed, not in the toilet, but at the Members’ Lounge and the Chair of the PIC was amongst them."
