"content": "Third, I spoke to the Leader of the Majority Party. Hon. Owen, you are part of the leadership and you should ensure that you lend Government time for Private Members’ Bills to be prosecuted in this House. We have an inordinately large number of such Bills that are pending. I have also been informed that on many occasions, Members with Bills listed for debate do not show up. This has also been happening. Hon. Members, if you have a Bill, you also have a duty to follow up with the Table Office and the Clerk’s Office to ensure that it moves to the next stage. When these Bills come to the House Business Committee, we will give them uttermost priority. I agree that there is absolutely no sensible reason for you to continue prosecuting Bills from your sister House while putting your own Private Members’ Bills in abeyance. They must all move together. If anything, your Bills should be given priority, and we will do exactly that."
