    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I am just finding that we are moving forward and backwards. We have started dealing with the Rules. Nobody rose to say that this was an ambush. You had dropped hon. Gumbo’s amendments, unless you are now reviewing your decision. I do not know whether there is a provision for such review. So, it means that the amendments are dropped. Even though we are dealing with a Supplementary Order Paper, this is a procedure which is known in Parliament. The more we delay the passage of these Rules, the less likely we are to have more hon. Members. We have been in this House and just a few of us have been passing business. So, I want to plead with my colleagues and the Chair that, yes, you can give us time, if hon. Members commit themselves to staying here tomorrow until we finish the business on the Order Paper. I would have preferred that we continue and if there is that window of re-committing the amendments, a colleague could call hon. Gumbo and tell him that this is Parliament’s time. Party business can go on later. Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, we need to make some progress. So, give direction."
