• 9 Jun 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me thank the Chair for belatedly bringing this answer which I sought in February this year. At that time, there were a lot of inconsistencies in weather patterns. I have heard the Chairman say that the weather forecast department has been accurate which is not true because we still have inconsistencies. What I need to be clarified on is about the modern equipment procured by the department for the last ten years. view
