"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as a fairly senior Member of this House, I understand what you are saying. I only want to remind him that I was in his position about 15 years ago. The Standing Orders actually stipulate that as a Minister, when you sign a Bill that will lead to incurrence of expenditure of public funds, the signature of a Minister should signify the acceptance. He should also indicate that His Excellency the President has acknowledged or has actually consented or authorized that particular signature. You do not just wake up and sign something that will cause expenditure unless you have sought the consent and concurrence of His Excellency, the President. So, normally, we believe that when they sign, obviously His Excellency the President has consented. If he has not, then I think you really need this wisdom. During this period of Recess, please revise the Standing Orders so that by the time we come next time, we do not get into this problems that we have gotten into."
