    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I know you have partly advised, but not ruled on this matter. However, I stand on this matter again under Standing Order No.245. What is going on in this House in regards to broadcasting is a very serious issue. Standing Order No.245(2) says that the broadcasting of the proceedings of the Senate shall comply with the rules set out in the Sixth Schedule of this Standing Orders. If you read Schedule Six under Television Broadcasting, it talks about the dignity that this broadcasting comes with. If you look at the tradition of this Act, sometimes we retreat to the Senate Lounge to follow these proceedings. When you are in the House and someone is talking and you are looking at the screen, you have the feeling that somebody is drunk. It is not dignified and honorary to the Members of this House. I am imagining if this is going on at the lounge, it looks even crazier. Madam Temporary Speaker, sometimes technological problems appear. Would you perhaps rule, by request, that the system be shut down now? The recording can proceed for future references. However, the system here and the other side is shut, so we can have a proper account of what we are following in the House as well as in the lounges. Otherwise, it is against the Sixth Schedule on dignity to the Senators who are contributing at any given time. I thank you."
