"content": "Order, Members! I think it is important for this House to conduct business properly. What I understand to be the bone of contention from the Government side is whether or not the proposed amendment preferred by hon. Marende is lawful or unlawful. Before we go any further, and because I have heard part of the Constitution and some Standing Orders being cited, I think I will deal with that procedural issue so that this House is clear, not only in respect of that amendment, but in respect of all other amendments. I had addressed this issue before it came to this House. So, I would like to hear what hon. Members have said. I heard some hon. Members say that the Speaker has approved this as being correct and others have said that may be the Speaker erred. I want to hear why you think I erred. If, in the end, you convince me, I will tell you so. If you do not convince me, I will also tell you because I have the law here. For the benefit of this House, I have directed my mind completely to the issues before this House, particularly in respect of the President's Memorandum. You will recollect that, yesterday, I deferred this matter because, in my view, we had not had adequate time to look at those amendments. I, subsequently, looked at them and they are on the Order Paper. Let me hear the objections! Who is objecting?"
