    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I actually expected the Committee to have gone further. When we talk of 30 per cent, it is possible for a Member of Parliament, where you have over ten candidates, to come to Parliament with 25 per cent of the votes cast. It is, therefore, possible to immediately get 30 per cent from those who did not vote or those who voted for other persons. I thought that we would have proposed 75 per cent, just like when we want to amend the Constitution, so that we raise the bar for those who may demand a recall of their Member of Parliament. I am worried of this proposal. Therefore, I want to move an amendment to this amendment by deleting the words “thirty per cent” and replacing them with the words “seventy-five per cent”."
