"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to support the amendment. All the hon. Members arguing against the amendment are speaking to the merits and demerits of the Motion itself. That Motion is not before the House. What is before the House is a procedure of getting back an amendment that the chairperson of the Justice and Legal Affairs Committee - It is committee that we have worked so hard to reconstitute, and that represents the face of Parliament - wants to come back. Whether you get more or less, surely as my good friend, hon. C. Kilonzo, is arguing, is it not better to have something than none at all? It is a matter of nothing or all of them. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think it is important to realize that the provisions for a limit were just a proposal. There is nothing binding in law and hon. Mungatana cannot anticipate debate. Even the Constitution, which he believes in, has already given us 290 positions, which are yet to be proposed. I support the amendment."
