"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the Motion. This is a Coalition Government. It involves a bloated Cabinet. About 55 per cent of the Members of Parliament are in the Government, whereas the other 50 per cent are Back benchers. You will find that some hon. Members are Members of two Committees and they also to have to August 7, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2465 attend sittings in Parliament. So, you will find that from Monday to Friday, Back benchers are usually in Parliament. They do not have time to go to their own constituencies. So, it is a good opportunity to go on recess, so that we can see our voters. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is also a grand opportunity for those Members who came to Parliament through party euphoria, and were actually voted for without being known by the electorate, to go back home and make themselves known to them. Thank you."
