That is because the House went immediately on recess and formalities of starting work delayed. So, really, what we are asking is replacement of that time that we lost. view
• 8 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, also, the other issue that had arisen during our public hearings is that the attention of the public has been captured by the visits that we have had. We have received more requests for public hearings that have necessitated our increased travel to various parts of the country and, for that reason; it is only fair and proper that we get an extension. view
