*HON. MUDARIKWA: Thank you Madam Speaker. The issue of bond notes is a job well done by the Government. We thank the Minister of Finance and Economic Development for so doing. If he comes to Uzumba, I will slaughter a cow for him.
Mbare Msika was no longer in business. People did not have cash to transact with. Our farmers are now able to transact because of the bond notes.
*HON. TARUSENGA: On a point of order Madam Speaker, the Hon. Member who is debating is not properly dressed. He is wearing a leather jacket.

Hon. Member, we have observed that you are wearing a leather jacket. May you go and wear a formal jacket?

HON. D. SIBANDA: On a point of order Madam Speaker.
THE HON. DEPUTY SPEAKER: What is your point of order?
HON. D. SIBANDA: Madam Speaker, thank you very much. My point of order Madam Speaker is, we have noticed that the Hon. Member has just been given a jacket by another Hon. Member. There is need for us to respect this House Hon. Speaker. It is not a dressing room. If they have to exchange clothes, it has to be done out of this august House. Thank you very much; not in the Chamber.
THE HON. DEPUTY SPEAKER: Order, Hon. Member. I still remember the Hon. Member who was putting a point of order one other day. Someone queried the type of dressing but at the same time, something happened and she changed her dressing and we continued. Yes, I remember. – [HON. MEMBERS: Inaudible interjections.] –
