    "content": "Mr. Clerk, the issue raised by Sen. M. Kajwang is important. We talk about inclusivity and diversity in this country. As a House of union, the Senate must lead by example. Sen. M. Kajwang raised a pertinent issue on a matter of women. We know very well that the Wiper Democratic Party has not nominated a Senator to the Senate as I speak now. This is an issue which is holding us back. The nominated Senators are being denied an opportunity to serve as Deputy Speaker here because of the provision for nominees to submit their names before the lapse of 48 hours. Why do we not suspend this sitting, then you can brief those Senators? In your Communication to us, you had said that you would brief them at 5.00 p.m. Why do we not suspend the House; you brief them and give them an opportunity? You cannot deny them an opportunity. It is like someone wanting to vote, but he is denied an opportunity to do so. The Constitution is quite clear on that matter. Finally, I beseech you to suspend this matter for now until the time that everyone who has been elected and sworn in can be given an opportunity to present their papers. There is no way you can disenfranchise elected Senators."
