"content": " On a point of order. Hon. Speaker, I respect the Budget and Appropriations Committee. However, the Chairman is trying to impute improper motives that this matter has just come up after the Committee signed the Report. If today he has been called somewhere for a cup of tea and makes changes, then he has realised that it cannot be attained, then it is actually an exercise in futility for the Committee to be sitting with the Cabinet Secretary to analyse issues for the whole 14 days and then today you get a statement that is not going in tandem with what the Committee agreed. Hon. Speaker, I tend to think, and this is one thing that we need to be serious about especially Chairs of committees, we have realised that they have become an appendix of the Executive on some issues. If you look at every Member who is a Chair of any committee, they go to bed with ministries that they oversee."
