Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. As a delegate from Meru, from the onset, I support this wonderful Bill. Housing is one of the basic rights that any individual should have. If you look at the recommendations of the Committee, it has identified key reasons why we need this affordable housing. One, we are short of good houses for our people. Two, we are creating thousands of jobs for the youth who are out there. We have artisans, masons, plumbers and electricians who will directly benefit from this affordable housing. We should not be hypocritical or close our eyes and ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for that communication which I am not contesting. However, you know this is a House that has a lot of work to do. When scheduling this business, there is a lot of considerations that are done, especially at the SBC. When a Cabinet Secretary (CS) postpones appearing before the House this very morning when we have scheduled already scheduled business, to me, I think that if we go that route, we will be disrespecting this honourable House. There must be some timeframe within which the CS should communicate. The reason that CS is giving that ...
