"content": "Therefore, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in conclusion and as I thank the Members, I would like to make the following points. We have two options, either for you to propose personal amendments which require that you file them with the Office of the Clerk because some of us are new in this House. At an appropriate time, you can then move those amendments on the Floor. I will then be asked by the Office of the Clerk to comment on whether I have any problem with that proposed amendment. That is one way. The other one, which is easier, is for you to work with me so that your amendment becomes my amendment. In that case, you do not have to notify the Clerk that you will be moving that amendment on the Floor as we go on. We shall go very fast. The option is yours. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, so that the country, which is listening, can be very clear on what the House has generally come to terms with, is that the following people are entitled to a flag. These are the President, the Deputy President and Speaker of either House. The Cabinet Secretaries and the Attorney-General should not fly the flag because earlier on, they used to fly them in order to be distinguished from the rest of the Members of Parliament with whom they were attending Parliament. So, now, because they are not Members of Parliament; they are just clerks of the Executive; they should stay that way in public functions because they are there to be seen and not to be heard."
