Try this:

```
function getStatments() {
  scatterController.get('statements');
}

```

You generally need to use `.get('$property_name')` when accessing properties in Ember objects.

If I am not wrong , Ember.inject.controller doesnt returns you the controller itself , It injects the requested controller in the required controller.

For Eg:

```
scatterController : Ember.inject.controller('sqlserver.pi.scatter-chart-analyitics'),
getStatments : function(){
 return this.get('scatterController.statements');
}

```
