    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the other thing we seem to have forgotten is that one of the Members also asked for a ruling as to the actual composition of that particular Committee. He also wanted to know whether that extra person nominated by the Government constitutes part of the total or is surplus to the figure we have set. How then do we hope to pass names today in anticipation of a ruling which we have not heard? In my opinion, I strongly support that we adjourn this debate because it will also allow us a lot of consultation. I am also an elected Member of Parliament and I appreciate that people out there have a problem with what is happening. But, again, there is a time to accept that, that is your role as a leader; that we will have to pay that price if that helps us to achieve a smoother way of transacting business. Do not ignore the fact that we have, hopefully, three-and-a-half years to go. If we get this right by waiting for one weekend, then, hopefully, it means we will have a smoother period within which we can transact much more business. Mr Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to support."
