Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to support this Motion. Mr. Hilary Mutyambai is going to fill the very big shoes of his predecessor, Mr. Boinnet. As has been said earlier, Mr. Boinnet was one of the most accessible public servants. If this gentleman is approved by this Assembly, he has a very big job ahead of him.

That is it. That is the function of PAC. There is no other function. What PAC has done is that it has overshot itself. What they have done is ultra vires. Therefore, by virtue of what the Leader of the Majority Party has raised, this House does not legislate or pass resolutions in vain.
