    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is why I think going the Committee way is the most efficient way of doing this because some Members, without wanting to refer to any Senator, have become habitual disturbers who will never let anybody finish anything. It is quite unfortunate. I was saying that in the business world, we form special teams because we want to be efficient and thorough. It can be almost impossible to peruse all the documents during a plenary sitting. The questions that arise may take ages to be answered. This process is time-bound because there is a time limit. That will only be possible if we go the Committee way. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as it has been said before, I would like to reiterate that nobody will be barred from attending proceedings of the committee. If you are passionate about following the proceedings or being part of it, I think it is still open. You can join and be part of the eleven-member Committee. If your name is not on the list, you should not assume that you will not stand a chance of delivering what will be fair. Finally, when the Committee presents its report to the House, I believe that we will have a chance to also give our input depending on the findings. For the sake of time and this being Christmas period where most of us will be engaged elsewhere, it is better that we go the Committee way. The Committee will dedicate time and resources required to come up with recommendations within the stipulated time. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support."
