    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I wish to join you in commending the House for undertaking a seamless voting exercise on this Bill. However, I take note of the fact that its Third Reading is lined up tomorrow, Wednesday, at 2.30 p.m. I plead with you that, bearing in mind the enormous number of possible amendments from Members on this very contested Bill, you consider giving us more time in terms of arranging the Order Paper. This will ensure that Members will get the opportunity to hand in their proposed amendments. Where there are similar or related amendments, we can undertake the winnowing process in line with the Standing Orders. The feeling of most Members is that the timing of 2.30 p.m. tomorrow is too soon for these processes to be undertaken and completed. Although I sit on the House Business Committee (HBC), I plead with you to try to re-arrange the Order Paper. We can use a Sitting on Thursday to process the Third Reading of this contentious or controversial Bill. Hon. Speaker, I submit."
