    "content": " Mr. Chairman, Sir, I essentially support everything that Mr. Abdikadir has proposed. However, hon. Members will appreciate that time is of essence in the provisions relating to the first review. I was concerned that in paragraph 3(6) within 14 days of the expiry of the period provided for in sub-paragraph 5, the Commission shall take into account the resolution of the National Assembly under sub-paragraph 3 to prepare and submit its final report outlining the matters set out in sub-paragraph 1(a) for publication in the Gazette. In the recent past, there have been stalemates in this House. It is possible that after the Commission submits to us we may not be able to deliver within the 14 days that are stipulated. So, I have consulted Mr. Abdikadir and a few hon. Members and I thought it would be prudent to introduce a proviso right there after the full stop and after the word “Gazette”. Under the principle of collective responsibility, since the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs has agreed to this, if the Chair allows, I can ask him to move this slight amendment simply to improve on this so that if we fail to produce the report that is required by the Commission and the 14 days are over, then the Commission will be at liberty to proceed and gazette the report which they have other than just keeping it like that. If 14 days are over, the Commission may wait, but if we do not agree, what will they do? I propose they should proceed and that we should make that small amendment. Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Sir."
