    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I wish to move the following amendment: That immediately after Clause 38(3) add Subclause 38(4), which reads as follows:- \"When a story includes unnamed parties who are not disclosed and the same becomes the subject of a legal tussle as to who is meant, then the editor shall be obligated to disclose the identity of the party or parties referred to\". Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, if you give me a moment to enlighten the gist of this amendment, it is that very often the media, and particularly the newspapers, will write a story and for all intents and purposes, you can say they mean the hon. Member for Mukurweini, for example. They will describe him fully. They will even write some very derogatory things about something he did over the weekend and so on, but they do not name him. So, if this matter ends up in court, the media normally gets away with it very easily just because they say that \"we never named him in person\". So, the gist of this proposed further amendment is that, if that happens, then the media house, in this case the editor, will be obligated to state or disclose who they meant in this story."
