    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I know Members want the Question to be put. I am grateful that my colleagues have come back so that we participate together in this legislation. I had started by talking about the amount that we have re- allocated from the Senate oversight. I have seen reports in the media that we did this to punish the Senate. I want to ask those who are reporting for media houses to ask about the things they do not understand. We are in June and this amount was supposed to be used from July to June. Unfortunately, the framework for spending has not been agreed on up to this time.Therefore, we felt that this amount cannot be spent in the next 20 days. That is the essence of reallocating that money from oversight. There is no way the Senate would spend it in a record two weeks. It has nothing to do with punishing the Senate or anything of the sort. Whoever made that report ought to have asked first. There are no regulations for spending that money, although I hear my colleagues are saying loudly that the money should be parliamentary oversight, and not Senate oversight. Maybe, that is something to think about as we go on."
