I will have to meet with the officials in the ministry and to take direction from the prime minister to see what she wants to be her focus. It is not my focus; it is what her focus is and that of the entire Cabinet.
Derrick Kellier

Jerry Nolder
I will be working on the logistics of this with City Hall officials with a view to establishing it and holding meetings on either a monthly or quarterly basis.

Greg Toussaint
Church officials will vehemently deny they still reassign these men. But the sad truth is that they do.
David Clohessy

John Campbell

Andrew Natsios
Texas functions best when public officials recognize that government does not belong to them but to the people.
Greg Abbott
The 'right to know' is more than the right to attend meetings of all boards and commissions. It extends to the records of government as well, and in this case it covers all public officials, not just those on boards and commissions.
Paul Gillies
We continue to have discussions with San Jose city officials about the future of major league soccer returning to the Bay Area and are hopeful that this will continue to move forward.
Dan Courtemanche
I think everything will continue the same way during games. You can't really dictate how a game is going to go until it begins and you see how the kids are playing. Officials adjust to the way the players play in each game.
Mickey Guidry
My son could be the head of CFL officials.
Milt Stegall
Park actively lobbied UN officials to establish the program, while extracting millions of dollars from profiteering Iraqi officials for his efforts.

I have every confidence that the answer I provided was circulated to the appropriate officials within our government.

Kevin Rudd
Protests have halted while government officials meet with local leaders to look for a solution.

David Richardson
(The officials) never had it under control. It was very disappointing and very frustrating. It was completely out of hand. I've never been in a game like this.

Susanna Dudiyeva
There needs to be a sounding to our state officials that resources are needed to address the needs of an increasingly complicated group of people.
Michael Stoltz
He was listening to officials, trusting that information they were providing was accurate.
Sally Forman
It's everywhere, but the Catholic schools are worse. You have the same officials, and they look at all black players and a black coach, and they make the calls.
Patrick Williams
This is a huge victory for the hundreds of children and families who were affected here. This is a completely ill-conceived and illegal effort by the governor and other officials to try and save a few dollars on the backs of abused and neglected children.
Ira Lustbader
There are a lot of constituencies we want to help: the players, the officials and the fans. This means more help for the officials, more strategy for the players and more intrigue for the fans. We need to marry tradition with innovation.
Arlen Kantarian
It's a pretty thankless job. We don't receive a lot of credit from the general public, and the majority of officials I know don't expect it.
Brian Preece
We can't jump over the elected officials to ask our (planning) staff to do something.
Jim Andrews
We'd like to really give credit where credit is due to the Booster Club for their generosity. It is very uncomfortable for the players, fans and officials and this will make it a lot more comfortable for everybody.

Mike Schulze
It is an effort to cope with the declining reputation of the party and the distrust of the people toward party officials.
Wenran Jiang
If the officials back or approve (a) deal, the chances are better than ever that he or she will get a campaign contribution after the fact. If I were intent on looking for big campaign contributors, this might be a valuable catalog.
Terry Francke
Law enforcement authorities have told Sears Tower officials that they have found no credible threats against Sears Tower since 9/11.
Mark Spencer

Kathay Feng
I really appreciate the kind gesture of the officials.

If the elected officials in this city don't have the guts to stand up for the individuals they represent, we have no choice but to take up the fight on behalf of these individuals.

David Richardson
We feel this approach is an opportunity for us to help officials and players while hopefully creating a bit more excitement and intrigue for fans.
Arlen Kantarian
The process will take as much time as the process needs. CDOT officials and federal officials will run the process as they see fit.

Tom Penders
It's served at least as a little bit of an education for the elected officials.
Aidan White

Pat Hunter
Bad officials are elected by good citizens who do not vote.
George Jean Nathan
We have notified FEMA and Louisiana officials that we are nearing capacity.

Todd Davison
It may have affected us a bit. But I don't blame the officials for us losing. We just weren't as focused as usual.

Sadakazu Tanigaki
Our officials and their officials will independently examine options.

Roderick Scott
Allegations that Moroccan and Spanish officials were involved in the deaths of migrants are extremely serious. These incidents require an independent international investigation.

Somchai Srisuthiyakorn
Health officials feel that a pandemic flu is likely to occur and no one's calling the avian flu the next pandemic, but we know that, sooner or later, something is going to happen. So, we need to be prepared.
Robert Guerrero
Once we decide what the change will be, we will give the county a 14 day advance notice before the change is made. A letter is sent to county officials informing them of the change.
Gina Busscher
I ask, sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people except for a few public officials.
George Mason
All our campaigns have counted on the support of independent monitors. In addition, collaboration between the WHO, the Ministry of Health and high-level officials including the First Lady Suzanne Mubarak has rendered our work all the more efficient.
Faten Kamel
I was a captain in the Army. I was told leaders lead. The problem is that a lot of elected officials are chicken.
Steven Berman
That's what (the officials) called. I won't say it was disputed, but that's what they called. Do you hold my keeper responsible for where he falls? They did. But I was more concerned because our players didn't handle the situation.
Tom Sexton
The officials promised to pay the man his money if UNICEF fails. That's why he released the hostage.
Abdirahman Dinari
Right now, it's an adjustment for everybody, ... Because the officials have never called it this strict and the players have never had it called this strict.
Kevin Mcdonald
I see in many minor and senior Western officials, copies of Hitler. Many of the western institutions are as if they are managed by the Gestapo and the S.S..
Hafez Barghouti
It's time for the elected officials to do their job.
Donald Briggs
State and federal forestry officials granted that money with the assumption that they were dealing with legal entities, which they were not. We need to make sure there are no liability issues.
Richard Bohling
We urge a clear and strict code of ethics with sanctions so that elected officials and special interests know what lines cannot be crossed.
Pete Maysmith
It is an unfortunate ending because that was one of our goals - to try and get back to Cedar Rapids - but I don't think it's something the officials could overlook. It was a good call, but unfortunate for us.
Tom Stauch
Government officials will not always act in the best interest of citizens. Without a free press to be a watchdog, there really are no restraints.
Gene Policinski
We want to make sure that the water is safe. Even though we did get the all clear from officials, we just didn't want to chance it.
Teo Clemens
The deal was that five of the tribe's leaders would negotiate with government officials to reach an agreement regarding the five members of the tribe who were detained by the government.

Rufus Jones
The concept is just to give our elected officials the right to use their judgment.
Rich Collins
At Emerson we never use the term 'lobby,' ... We use the term 'educate.' Our management believes that if we can educate elected officials to the global challenges that American businesses face today ... that hopefully they will make better public policy decisions.
Robert Mcdonald
There's no such thing as perfection. Mistakes happen. Officials are so hard on themselves. When they make a mistake, nobody feels worse than they do.
Jerry Markbreit
Safety and health regulations should not be second-guessed by trade officials.
Jean Halloran
All non-convicted detainees have the right to vote. That includes Saddam and other former government officials.
Abdul Hussein Hindawi

Richard Caborn
We don't want violence. But if it happens, it will be caused by government officials and the government will lose.
Chamlong Srimuang
We want to thank the officials organization. We get a really good group of core officials to help with the meet. It would be impossible to host the meet without the support that we have from the community.
Scott Walkinshaw
Our company was definitely looked at very hard; we met a lot of top government officials and held deep conversations.
Harry White
We go to these 'Victory With Honor' clinics; our kids have to attend and Pine Hill kids have to attend, but how many officials have to go also?
Wally Sanchez
We lose and gain about five officials in a year. Sometimes injuries occur, so the more the better.
Chad Laswell
It's not too cold, it's not too hot, so they (military officials) expected the insurgents would be active this season, and they have been.
Sarah Galashan
I think it starts at the very top with the elected officials, goes to the appointed officials, goes to the Department of Criminal Justice ... and down to the prison employees who were very lax that day.
Jayne Hawkins
We have elected officials who put consensus and getting along above anything else.
Joe Delucco
Liberal local officials were invited to a conference on decentralization, autonomy and governance. Obviously, the conference could not be converted into a party meeting to elect new officers.
Florencio Abad
That lopsided figure partially reflects Virginia's need to catch up to North Carolina. The federal officials have to buy now to make up what wasn't done in acquiring land in the 1930s.
Anne Mitchell
We expect them (Salvadoran officials) to work toward the elimination of human rights.
Dan Quayle
He's forced into that. No astute correctional officials will voluntarily put their highest-risk inmates together like that.
Allen Beck
I can't reply in detail but have furnished all details to them. There is no truth in the allegations and the present board officials only want to malign me.
Jagmohan Dalmiya
Duke University is monitoring the situation and cooperating with officials, as are the students.
John Burness
Given that (city officials) have done nothing for the preservation cause, and indeed have done a lot of damage to it, (are they) going to seize on this as an opportunity for mass demolition, in order to build something akin to Houston?
Frederick Starr
It appears that the officials there have been overwhelmed by the magnitude of this disaster.
Robert Eckels
He easily could have come to the officials responsible. If they hadn't acted then, he would resign, have a press conference, and that would be entirely honorable.
Chuck Colson
I tell them to check with local (officials).
Mike Welch
It's way too early to say anything has been decided. We have to determine what we want and what [baseball officials] want and what makes sense.
Vince Morris
Whenever a parent brings a concern that involves their child to the principal, officials have the obligation to look into the matter.
Steve Stanford
The officials allowed much more aggressive play than our conference allows. The officials let us bang, grab and push tonight. When that whistle blew, you could have flipped a coin.
Wells Gulledge
As far as anyone knows, and officials have checked, there was no wreck and Junior was not dead.
James Gallagher
There's a great lack of education with these deputies and it's not their fault. It doesn't seem like [county officials] have learned a lot by what has happened.
Dennis Scheib
To us that was the last straw and we started attending City Council meetings asking the officials and the builder to take responsibility.
David Hernandez
We tried to argue (with federal officials) that if the very next day the person moves, it was all for naught.
Bill Cather
[The U.S. Constitution] forbids hostility toward any religion. In total disregard for the Constitution, homosexual activists in position of authority in San Francisco are abusing their authority as government officials and misusing the instruments of government to attack the Catholic Church.
Robert Muise
In my training, I encourage public officials to recognize how things can look in the (media), ... test the elasticity of the law.
Tim Delaney
It was this close to being out of (the officials) control.

It's for cricket officials to decide what version of the game they want to offer to the Commonwealth Games.
Randhir Singh
The intelligence officials have to have probable cause before they start to obtain that information, which is why we think it's constitutional.

Greg Reynolds
They really shocked Chinatown and all the officials when they revealed themselves last year.
Sherri Brittain
We will talk with the officials of Pakistan's government and the cricket board.
Yashovardhan Azad
I am concerned and disappointed that Putnam officials do not believe the issue requires their attention.
Judy Allen
It's good to interact with people you don't normally interact with, like borough officials.
Josh Young
And the officials have officials looking over their shoulder, too. So I'm sure they're calling it right down the middle.
Chris Hovan
It's obvious it's home-cooking here. (The) Bay County medical examiner is doing what he can to assist Bay County officials.
Benjamin Crump
Don't cuss. Don't argue with the officials. And don't lose the game.
John Heisman
Every day we were in touch with state officials offering to go in. They said they don't want us in there.
