Learn Finnish: Rouva sihteeri, tässä on lausunto. - Madam Secretary, here is the statement.

In Finnish, titles and professions are not capitalized, even when used as a direct address. Rouva (Madam) is only capitalized here because it is the first word of the sentence.

Why do we use tässä for "here" instead of täällä?

Tässä (in this) is used for an exact, specific spot, especially when something is right in front of you or being handed to you. Täällä refers to a larger, more general area (around here). Since someone is presenting a specific document to the Secretary, tässä is the natural choice.

Is the word lausunto related to any verbs?

Yes, it is derived from the verb lausua (to state, to pronounce). The suffix -nto is used to create nouns that represent the result of the action, so a lausunto is the statement itself.

Could I change the word order and say lausunto on tässä?

Grammatically yes, but the nuance changes. Tässä on lausunto follows the typical Finnish existential sentence structure (Location + Verb + Subject), introducing the statement as new information. Lausunto on tässä would emphasize the location instead, meaning "The statement is right here."
