    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. A few weeks ago, I brought a Motion in this House which I was very passionate about, but it did not go the way I wanted. I understand that things do not always work the way you want. I did not go out there to cast aspersions on anyone, build stories or create narratives to support what I wanted. I want to agree with my seniors, including the Leader of the Minority Party, and those who have insisted it is important to have consequences for mistakes made. Hon. Speaker, if you do not name this Member what will stop another Member from doing something worse, if you pass a decision in this House and they do not agree with? I want to strongly urge you because I am also a first-time Member. I understand the things I can do and those I cannot. One of the things you cannot do is to cast aspersions on the Speaker. This is because the minute you do so, it means everything we do in this House can be challenged. This is because you are saying there is a possibility of compromising the Speaker and the Members. He has made such a strong allegation. In this House, we know that allegation is baseless. But because he is a journalist and is able to call journalists to give him free media coverage, he thinks he can say whatever he wants. It is the responsibility of this House to teach him a lesson 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."
