Mr. Speaker, Sir, for those who thought that the Senate was just an appendage in this Parliament; they now have an opportunity to start seeing us working. We would like to encourage the Senate Majority Leader. PING PONG ON CONCURRENCE OF BILLS BY THE OTHER HOUSE But having said that, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would also like, with your permission; I am still waiting for the communication from the Chair, where you promised us that a Bill that went through all the three stages of reading in this House and which was taken to the National Assembly for concurrence; and then the National Assembly started a new process of exactly a similar Bill which has never come here. We hear from other quarters that, that Bill has eventually gone to the Office of the President, which has returned it to the National Assembly with a memorandum. We would like to know all these unconstitutional movement of Bills, including the unconstitutional behaviour by the Head of State in terms of the way Bills are assented to, what is the official position?
