Many times we have wanted to delink ourselves from the Executive. As a Parliament, we want to legislate for our own calendar, so that we know when to go home and when to come back to legislate. But it seems that the Executive, through some – I do not want to use some uncouth words like mischievous – some other avenues tries to draw a calendar for this Assembly, and tries to keep us here longer here than we ought to. I would want to request that you find the Executive in contempt of this Parliament by not trying to abide--- They had all the time to prepare this Finance Bill. For them to, again, say that there is a last minute surprise and they want to consider some of the amendments is not being fair to this House."}
