    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish the honourable Senator could have asked me to give him some information because he is attempting to give this House further information but that does not do away with Article 67 of the Constitution. In any case, my appeal to you is to consider people who are being rained on as we stand here because of a fault which is not theirs. They are suffering because of issues they do not even understand. They are suffering because they have made some of us Members of Parliament or Members of the Senate just by sheer voting. I think time has come when we should do away with political disagreements and this House should start looking for ways and means of getting all the wrongs which have happened in the last 20 or 30 years and correcting them. It can only do that if we do away with agitative politics where if anybody brings anything we see politics in it. Let us now try and see a human being in everything that we have try to do here. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I remember looking at the records where you headed a select committee of the National Assembly which came out with a very good recommendation. I was happy to look at it when I was doing some investigation about this Motion and I found that you were concerned and so is everybody. So, let us not appear out there as if we do not care about others. When the honourable Senator found that it is not conclusive, we can bring a Motion to do exactly what my friend wanted to do. If somebody is rained on and you tell him that he should continue being rained on until other people come to report to us whether they are having similar problems, that is not good."
