"content": "In essence, what the IEBC will do is that they will say, the law tells us that notwithstanding the law that exists, we can do other things. They will be right. We do not want to give them that discretion by this House. This is a House of law makers and learned people. It is a House of people who speak proper English from the Oxford Dictionary and not concocted English from River Road. So, let us stick to what we learnt in school. Let us stick to what is proper. Let us stick to what is in the HANSARD which we always record in a proper manner. Let us not concoct a language that will make it very difficult for us to discipline the IEBC. Therefore, I would like to accept the amendment and persuade us that the word “notwithstanding” has brought mischief to the law making that the two Senators made, and a Committee that did such a beautiful work."
