    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. First of all, I want to appeal to those who give advice to His Excellency the President. One of the reasons given – a court case – is so dangerous for this House that in future, it will be very easy for anybody to go to court to stop a matter that is procedurally before the House. Secondly, the wisdom behind this amendment then was that we are in a transition. My good colleagues who are now partyless did not contemplate it. It is courtesy of the transition that we are in. We wanted to make it very clear that within this Parliament, it is not practically possible to be in your party if your party was to conform. I want to plead that for the future, reference to court cases--- I am saying this in the interest of this House and country. We should never ever refer to it. We have clear separation of powers and this Parliament must be allowed to do its job. I support in this case."
