    "content": "I would prefer a situation where the Government walks backwards from 27th of August. For example, you need to subtract three weeks to allow the President time to do his 14 days referral if he so wishes. You have to give Parliament, at least, four weeks, from the time it is tabled, Committee Stage and various deliberations. Then, you need two weeks for the publication so that you do not keep on telling us that you want extension of time. That reduces that time from August up to June. I expect the Vice- President and Minister for Home Affairs to be familiar with Article 261 and, indeed, I had read it earlier. I would like to quote the Article with the indulgence of the Chair. “ For the purposes of Clause(1), the Attorney General - and he is seated here - in consultation with the Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution, shall prepare the relevant Bills for tabling before Parliament, as soon reasonably practicable, to enable Parliament to enact the legislation within the period specified.”"
