    "content": " I notice that there are many Members who would want to contribute to this Motion, but the rules are very clear. The Motion is proposed, seconded, then the question is proposed by the Speaker. Order, Hon. Members. You realise that the Temporary Speaker represents a constituency, primarily because he represents a constituency and he is also in the same predicament. He will bend the rules a little bit to allow the substance and attendant eloquence to come out, but let me now take you back. I might have to disappoint you a bit. Hon. Members, Standing Order No. 259(c) says; Ad hoc Committees. (1) A Member may, subject to the approval of the House Business Committee, move a Motion proposing the establishment of an Ad hoc Committee on a specific and exceptional subject not under active consideration by a Committee of the House. Fair enough. (2) A Motion under this Standing Order shall— (a) indicate the proposed name of the Committee; which we have already done, (b) outline the proposed mandate of the Committee and the exceptional nature of the subject to be considered; and, (c) indicate the proposed membership and leadership of the Committee. Which we have already done. (3) The Mover of a Motion under this Standing Order shall ensure that— (a) the proposed membership of the Committee reflects the relative majorities of the seats held by each of the parliamentary parties in the National Assembly and takes into account the interests of parties other than parliamentary parties and independents; and, (b) not more than two-thirds of the proposed membership of the Committee are of the same gender. (4) Unless the House otherwise resolves, another Committee shall consider and report on the subject matter of its mandate within ninety days. That is part of the rules. Hon. Members the two are the gender, independent parties that are not parliamentary parties. You might have unfortunately, against my very big wish, because I told you from the beginning that I am an interested party."
