• 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for record purposes, I did not say that we did not consult. We did not summon him to appear before our Committee. That is the clarification that the Member needs to understand. I said that we did not summon him to appear before the Committee, but we consulted on the question that had been asked by hon. Ochada. Therefore, we could not go into issues of contractual obligations that were not part of the question. However, now that it has been raised, we can look into it further. view

They are not going to send the Principal Secretaries or an officer from the Ministry to come and represent them in this House.
