I will ask for information. I wish to ask the Prime Minister whether he is not aware of the feeling of discontent that exists in the country because of the absenteeism in this House in comparison with the lack of absenteeism in the industries of the country. Will he not see to it that Members attend the House and do their duty? It is not necessary for them to make speeches to do their duty.
