    "content": "This is what your Standing Order says; that whenever a petition is committed to a Departmental Committee, the Committee shall act in not more than 60 calendar days from the time of reading of the prayer, respond to the petitioner by way of a report addressed to the petitioner, or petitioners and laid on the Table of the House, and no debate on or in relation to the report shall be allowed, but the speaker may, in exceptional circumstances allow comments or observations in relation to the petition for not more than 20 minutes. That is why I thought it exceptional, in that you have not seen the Report tabled. What follows in sub- section (3), is extremely important moving forward. It says that the Clerk shall, within 15 days of the decision of the House, in writing notify the petitioner of the decision of the House on the petition. The House cannot make a decision on a matter that it has not been seized of, by laying on the Table a report which is not debated, and only allowing comments in The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
