    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. As the father of the Committee system in this Parliament, I feel very proud when I hear Committees giving a treatise of what they have been doing and what they plan to do. Sen. Cherargei, in his youthful state, has acquitted himself very well in steering this Committee and achieving a few miles, including but not limited to leading our House to court to enforce our rights. I do remember him chairing the Committee to prepare the pleadings. Even when some Members were engaging a reverse gear, we were able to herd them into the proper perspective. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to comment on three things very briefly. One, the Committee should continuously speak loud and clear in protection of the independence of the Judiciary. Increasingly, the Executive in this country is very uncomfortable with the Judiciary. The Executive has embarked on a retributive attitude and conduct toward the Judiciary, including, truncating their budgets to make it impossible for them to work The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
