Hon. Speaker, we receive communication and, at times, we appear in so many committees. So, at times, if you receive communication and you are told the CS is appearing that day or that time, you will organise yourself.

Hon. Speaker, that was part of the Question. Some officers had been transferred and had not been replaced. You gave a directive which I was waiting to be responded to. A specific answer was to be given to the House.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute. From the outset, I wish to support this important Bill.
