"content": "On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. I appreciate how emotive this issue of the media Bill is. However, I am just wondering because we have to transact business within our rules. The Bill that the Chair is referring to was actually passed by this House. I do not know whether this Statement intends to re-open the Bill because it has to go to the President who can refuse to assent to it and then it is sent back to us as a House. So, we will deal with the Bill once it is referred to us appropriately rather than trying to get a Statement explaining this. It could be true that probably there is oversight by this House. However, that can be dealt with properly when the President refers the Bill back to this House. I urge the hon. Member to petition the President given the fact that he comes from the Jubilee side of the coalition. He can petition the President to refer the Bill back to us and then we deal with it appropriately instead of listening to a Statement and yet we do not know what to do with it."
