    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I rise to support this Motion. I think these are basically the same hon. Members who were on this Committee in the last Session. I think they did a good job, led by the Speaker. I would have no difficulty in supporting this Motion. While supporting the Motion, I would also want to comment on something on the membership of the other committees. I feel there are still some hon. Members who either belong to no committee or quite a number belong to only one committee. Although this is something which was discussed here and agreed upon, it appears that, perhaps, the leadership has not taken it very seriously. I am one of those who belong to only one committee. I saw my name in a certain list, but when I went to attend that particular committee, I learnt that the clerk did not have my name there. So, I think this should be streamlined. Those who are concerned should make sure that each of the hon. Members belong to, at least, two committees. Hon. Speaker, where we have hon. Members who are in more than two committees, perhaps, that should also be reviewed so that they can give up their places to those who do not belong to any committee, so that each one of us can have a chance to contribute substantially and usefully. It is not just a matter of making technical appearances in some of the committees. I beg to support the list."
