    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this being a Procedural Motion, I need not spend a lot of time. However, I need to say the following. The Senate has just concluded one year and we are now putting our leg into the second one. Everyone realizes that we have moved on very well. This is because of the leadership of the Senate, which includes the Speaker, the Senate Majority Leader and the Deputy Senate Majority Leader. They have done a very good job. In fact, we have no complaints about the staff. They have also done their work extremely well and they deserve our support. It is only when leadership is united that a house can progress. I am happy with the way the Senate Minority Leader and also the Senate Majority Leader are conducting their business in this House. The only thing I feel a bit concerned about is that they take their job a bit far. I was very impressed when the Senate Majority Leader voluntarily came up and realized that things were not going the right direction. I hope that next time both leaders in this House will give us the support that we require. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, security is a universal requirement for all of us. No one can take it easy when we are not secure. We, as a country, need to support the President with his Deputy and see how far they will be able to help this country. This is, especially so, in their effort to ensure there is security in this country. He has indicated this in many forums, particularly when he admitted that there is a problem in the Office of the President. That was indication that he is really ready to move far. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
