    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, a careful examination of all the clauses of the code of conduct flies in the face of Section 79 of our Constitution, including independence, accountability and integrity. Above all, you will notice that the Bill also proposes certain punishments, including deregistration. It is requiring people who want to practise journalism to even be registered. It is requiring people to even be submitting themselves to the Minister for Information and Communications, so that he can appoint a chairman of a Council, et cetera . Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, my humble prayer is that a finding be made that this Bill contravenes Section 79 of the Constitution, and that it is, indeed, a violation of the Constitution that the House be debating and considering it. Thank you, Sir."
