"content": "Well, if you feel that you are ceremonial, then you leave your duty under Articles 34 and 35 and go and do those un-ceremonial things out there. Here, we are serious Members of the National Assembly. We have come here to prosecute issues, and there are a lot of issues that we are dealing with. There is this animal called “public participation.” We have now understood what this animal is all about. We are trying to tame it so that we can use it within our understanding and get it done. They have done a good job with public participation. There are other issues that we have seen that we have to get seized of and see how then, when we release this Bill to the people to make a decision on a referendum, it becomes something which they can interact with. So, the only issue that got me startled is this claim that we are ceremonial. I am not in anybody’s ceremony. Hon. Speaker, I think we should give them time, but we should have a report that we can deal with and see how we can properly interact with this thing. I thank you, Hon. Speaker."
