Would I be in order to suggest that the same modus operandi is introduced in this House, so that we avoid situations where Members just ask for statements and disappear?

Whenever the Chairperson or the Vice Chairperson of a Committee is not present, a Member is called upon to read the Statement. This has been omitted today. In any case, is the Senate Majority Leader in order not to give the Statement himself?
