I need your direction. The direction I need is that the Constitution says that there shall be no discrimination on several grounds including that of ethnicity. I am glad that the Member has apologized for what he said and I am glad I was not very keen. However, I listened to what you said and it is upon what you have said that I need your direction. I have stood on this Floor, in the past, and named even tribes which do not include mine but which I have felt are being discriminated against. I sit in the Equal Opportunities Committee and we look at discrimination even on the basis of ethnicity. The direction I need from you is; is it the view of the Chair that we should not mention where there is discrimination on the basis of ethnicity? With all due respect, the Constitution provides otherwise."}
