    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. This matter, indeed, as Prof. Kaloki rightly puts it, is critical for the integrity and the credibility of the whole electoral process. I would want to add that when the Minister responds to this, he should provide to the House various possible scenarios, including the possibility that it may not be possible or practical to have the diaspora voting in the first election under the new Constitution. I say this because there are certain matters addressed by the Constitution in a progressive version. So, we should also not be anticipating instantaneous realization of some of the innovations in the Constitution that anticipated progressive actualization. Therefore, the Minister should tell the House not only the level of preparedness, but also the possibility that, in fact, this may not be possible at the first election."
