 The House of Representatives on Tuesday inaugurated its Artwork Committee on Daily Fuel Conception after the Speaker, Honourable Femi Bajabiamila, announced a 16-member committee on Wednesday, 26 January 2022. The mandate of the committee, as stated by the Speaker then, which was highlighted by the newly inaugurated Committee Chairman, is to determine the actual costs and volume of daily consumption of petrol, and to also know the state of the nation's four refineries. The committee is expected to engage experts in the sector, transport operators and stakeholders to enable it to come up with detailed findings, trust as the government in coming with a solution to the subsidy or no subsidy question. The committee has eight weeks to turn up its report. I'm personally delighted and grateful to the House for finding us worthy to be appointed as members of this committee and for selecting very experienced, active and hardworking members of your calibre and finding me worthy to chair the committee. Today's meeting is very important and key as our first and agenda-setting meeting for the committee. The Secretariat has prepared a draft work plan indicating possible programs and activities for our consideration, input and adoption. I therefore urge you all to consider the draft and make your input while I look forward to a very fruitful deliberation.
