"content": "“Except as otherwise provided in these rules, or as the Speaker may for exceptional reasons to be stated determine, the proceedings of the Senate for the hearing of evidence shall be held in public.” That is the first part that dwells on plenary. In the second part that deals with the Select Committee, Rule No. 29 states as follows- “The proceedings of the Committee hearing the evidence shall be held in public.” So, there is no jeopardy suffered anywhere whether we go plenary or the committee way. On the issue of the specifics of the names, there are only 11 slots. It is not possible that we go the Committee way and every Senator become a Member of it. There has to be 11 Senators who will be Members of the Committee. The rest of us will sit back and receive the report from our colleagues. We will have an opportunity to speak to that report. It is important that as we debate the way to go, we are properly guided by our Standing Orders, so that we do not even create wrong impressions that we do not understand---"
