    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Chairman. I support this amendment. I think it will need to be a bit expounded the way my colleagues have said. This is because in the Parliament that we are concluding now, especially in the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security, we had several Members who were removed from the Committee without being given the opportunity to be heard, against our Constitution. The Constitution says that when you are accused, natural justice requires that you must be heard. So, I think we need to expound and make sure that the issue of hearing is upheld so that Members can be heard. They can exhaust their reasons or even the accusing party must explain exhaustively why they are removing the Members. Many of them have really suffered and they have not been able to discharge their duties in those particular Committees because of being removed unfairly. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
