Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to, first of all, apologize that I walked in after hon. Ethuro had raised Question No.925. I have an answer ready and most of it requires tabling of documents.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me give an explanation. I was caught up in another meeting and I tried to dispense of it. While on transit here, unfortunately, I was caught up in a traffic jam.
