    "content": "The point I want to make is this: It is incumbent upon the Chair to give a considered ruling. The other day I was on the Floor referring to a judgment and I was asked to table. What I did was to take my phone and share the document with Sen. Cherarkey. What should have happened was for Sen. Omtatah to be told to share the document using his email to the Clerk, then it is displayed. We are here as the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) to assist this House in conducting business in a flawless manner. If you read Standing Order No.265(4), it states that- “A Senator or a witness intending to display a document or evidence shall share the document with the Clerk for purposes of display during the meeting.” The moment our clerks here had received that reference, I believe they should have displayed it for us because we want to make people who have gone digital to have an easy time on the Floor of the House. We should not inhibit those who have migrated to the digital way of doing business. We should facilitate them, but not inhibit."
