    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will only make two clarifications. First, in equity we have a maxim that says: “Equity assists the vigilant and not the indolent.” So, the point at which he should have raised it has long passed. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the second issue that the Chairman has spoken about is public participation. I know that because he is in a hurry he has not given the full details. The public actually gave us written memoranda which we looked at and even called some for clarifications. One actually did write a letter saying that the matter was actually clarified to her satisfaction. Even in the other ones, we made a decision that there was no need to call people to come physically because they were saying that some of the reasons they wanted candidates disqualified is because they did not comment on the Hague. Surely, as Members of Parliament, we cannot take time to call people to interrogate them on why the nominees did not comment about the Hague."
