    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have listened through the debate this afternoon about the membership to the Senate Business Committee. I have also read through the provisions of Standing Order No.190. Listening to the Members, I have not heard anyone contravening Standing Order No.199(4) in particular, opposing the membership of the hon. Senator to the Senate Business Committee. Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to read Standing Order No.199 (2), which states as follows: - “Whenever a Motion for approval of a list under paragraph (1) is moved in the Senate, no objection against the proposed membership of a Senator in a Select Committee shall be permitted and objections, if any, shall be formulated against the proposed membership as a whole.” I have agonised over this debate. None has opposed the proposed membership to the Senate Business Committee. As regards the issue of whether the Hon. Member belongs to the Majority or Minority side, it is not a subject of further debate because you have already ruled. I, therefore, stand to support the Motion that the list as presented by the Senate Majority Leader be approved."
