All right, I hear you. If the issue is whether or not the Chair proposed the Question, I think you have answered yourself that the Chair proposed the Question. However, on the other issue as to whether the Chair should have allowed Members to contribute, it remains the discretion of the Chair.

Order, Hon. Bowen. You are the same people who vet and approve those people. If those people are thieves and corrupt as you say, how come the National Assembly approved the people who are appointed as cabinet secretaries? I am trying to follow your argument.

The point I am making Hon. Bowen is that you should say things which are consistent. When members of public are following your debate, they should find it consistent with your role.
