    "content": "Hon. Nyikal, before I put the Question, I have made a pronouncement about four times on the Floor of the House that those who have amendments should file them by 1.00 p.m. today. This is for a few simple reasons. One, the Bill has attracted a lot of contentious arguments and proposals. Second, the Committee in its report, has recommended a myriad of amendments to the Bill. Three, we want to have sufficient time to harmonise amendments that may be identical or overlapping. We cannot do that if we are constrained with time. Fourth, if you are speaking for yourself, you are the sort of Member of Parliament who would draft an amendment before the Bill is even moved. I, therefore, do not know why you want extra time. My direction that all amendments be filed by 1.00 p.m. stands. I do not think is injurious or oppresses any Hon. Member. Hon. (Dr) Nyikal, since the time I started making the pronouncement, no Hon. Member has raised any reservations. I believe that your reservation is not only unhelpful but will also draw us back to the management of the House Business and that will not be helpful. Yes, Hon. Leader of the Majority Party."
