"content": " This is how we are going to proceed; I hear all of you and the arguments that you have brought before this House. Procedure is good and rules are good. They are made for us, we are not made for them. We should be able to ventilate and debate a Motion so that it satisfies the need for which it was brought and so that the Members are able to say their piece on that debate. I am sure Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale or any Mover of a Motion would not stand in the way of an amendment just because they do not want their Motion to be changed because, then that negates the purpose for which the Standing Orders are passed. I am sure I am correct in saying that Sen. Elachi can move that Motion in whatever capacity. But for the satisfaction of Members and so that the HANSARD can read correctly and so that we can now proceed correctly, and since Sen. Elachi is still contributing to this Motion, she has brought to my attention an amendment to the Motion in the same manner under her name which I have now approved and for which we will proceed under Standing Order No.53 (2) as an approved Motion so that we can stop the debate on this issue and proceed with the bottom-line of the Motion, which is, to ventilate it, reach where we can albeit all the issues that are before us. I think that, that satisfies Members. Does it not?"
