• 3 Dec 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as the Deputy Senate Majority Leader confirms tomorrow to this House, can he also give a reasonable explanation why the Chairpersons in the “Lower House” seem not to have problems with the Cabinet Secretaries while Chairpersons in this House seem to have the challenge?
