00:00Vice-Chair, it's sad because we are all here to clarify what really happened, especially in the budget of the Vice-President

00:13when it comes to the confidential fund and his budget for 2025.

00:19However, I will not ask because I know that he will answer again and again.

00:25It's frustrating because this is the money of the people.

00:30I would like to thank the Vice-President for showing her true colors to the House

00:35and her lack of respect for check and balances and the separation of powers and accountability.

00:43We are a republic. We don't have a king or a queen.

00:48Now, Madam Chair, since VP Sara cannot answer the questions of the member,

00:55may I move now to defer the hearing of the budget of the Office of the Vice-President.

01:01I so move, Mr. President.

01:02Is there any objection? Hearing none, the same is approved.
