    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to debate this Motion. I am for all women in this country. I am with the spirit of this Motion. We must create the regional balance that is required. That issue is crucial when it comes to the appointment to the Parliamentary Service Commission. I wish Ms. Abdallah had stopped at that point. That is because, then, we would have no problem in passing this Motion. But the wording of this Motion puts me in a position of saying that I will not support this Motion. I want to give my reasons. At the end of the Motion, it says:- \"Inclusion of persons other than Members of Parliament in the Parliamentary Service Commission and for matters incidental thereto and connected therewith.\" July 30, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2197 Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this House is being asked to get non-Members of Parliament to sit and determine our in-house issues. It is a very dangerous Motion! I hope hon. Members are listening. We cannot surrender the control of this House and matters pertaining to us to people other than ourselves. That cannot happen!"
