Mr. Speaker,
This enquiry is for the Foreign Affairs minister.
@Antaglha Xhenerös Somelieir We are just a few weeks away from the 10th anniversary of the Bureau for Humanitarian Aid and International Development (BHAID). Some private and unofficial celebratory activity has been conducted by a very popular fellow. What plans does the Ministry have for the Government to officially mark this occasion?
Firstly, the member opposite seems to have gone against their own rules of one terp per minister per month, so this feels like harassment territory.
With BHAID, whatever plans we may or may be making, it is too early to release information on that. Also I would disagree that the individual doing as the opposite member said is "popular" and more like a weed in Talossan politics that is self serving and seems to only care about the "prestige" of setting up the organisation but doesn't truly care about the work, as with a charitable organisation, you don't get involved or use it to make anyone look good, but for the people or is there to help, so making a big deal out of something by constantly framing it as "something I created" is something that member of the public mentioned by the member opposite seems gross as cheap as it is detracting from the work BHAID does and turning it into a personal trophy to show off.

Mr. Speaker,
I hope you will not be offended by the Minister's continued failure to follow the rules.
The popular quip was a joke considering the past few months here on Witt. You seem to have misunderstood.
In my own personal celebrations I mentioned that Justice Ian was a co-founder and sponsored a Sense of the Ziu applauding your own Ministry as well as donors to the BHAID. Aside from my own personal pride about the organization I co-founded how does this show presenting it as a personal trophy? I even asked to cooperate with you when you appointed yourself as BHAID administrator which you rejected.
It also seems that the Ministry is once again reticent to release any information. We now see a growing track record of opacity with respect to the operations of the Foreign Ministry which makes efforts towards accountability difficult to impossible.
