    "content": "Hon. Members, this point was canvassed in the House Business Committee yesterday. It was raised by Hon. Owen Baya and supported by the entire Committee. First, we agreed that from now on, we will give priority to Private Members' Bills. I encourage committees where Bills have been held for a little while because of backlog of work to ensure that they are processed quickly and move to the next stage. Second, after looking at several Bills that pass through my office, I noted that there are about three or four Bills touching on the same issue. In many instances, Members have sponsored different Bills to amend the same existing statute. I have directed the Clerk’s Office to reach out to Members who have sponsored those Bills to find ways of amalgamating them and still achieve the same intent."
