"content": "Thank you, very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. With all due respect to my good friend, hon. Ababu, the first thing that I have to tell him and the House is that the Committee has not ceded its responsibility to the Executive in any way, whatsoever. Indeed, what happened and it is in the HANSARD, we, as a Committee, sat together with the stakeholders and we got some kind of agreement between us although at the end of the day, the CIC also had their issues. All this had to happen in the ambit of the House being able to get the threshold that is required of two- thirds. We do not want to engage in an exercise in futility. We thought that once we withdraw these amendments, it will be easier for us to re-introduce them in future as we move together. On that basis, it was done in good faith and goodwill. I am sure at the end of the day, if we can move together, these are things that can actually, later on see the Floor of the House when it will only require a simple majority. I would like to appeal to my colleagues---"
