    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we agreed yesterday to take the position that we took in the 10th Parliament. I can see many of my colleagues are seated here and can very well recall that the last State Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill in the 10th Parliament came in January when we had about ten days to the end of the life of that Parliament. This is what we had to do, those laws that had timelines and urgency were passed at the Third Stage; those that could wait for the 11th Parliament to come were dropped at the Committee Stage. Therefore, we agreed yesterday that some of the proposed amendments have got timelines. For instance, if you look at the vetting of Judges and Magistrates Act, you will see that we need to extend the timeline before we go for recess. However, those that can wait until we come back in February, if there will be recess for that matter, we agreed that they will be dropped at the Third Reading. They could also be shelved or as we say “stood down” at that particular stage."
