    "content": "Order! Hon. Members, whereas Members of the Government are also elected Members of Parliament, there is a cardinal rule that essentially has been both a precedence and a tradition of Parliament. It is important to uphold the traditions of Parliament. The House Business Committee (HBC) has got a majority from the Government side. This motion came through the HBC. That is a venue or an opportunity where Government Ministers can address this issue. There is the Cabinet and there is the Government. The chair is not going to be kind, morality or conscience aside, in upholding the rules and the traditions of the House, with Ministers who come out here to oppose Government motions. I think we need to assess ourselves. We have an institution and a democracy that we need to protect on its own principles. It is not the expediency that matters."
