    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Allow me to re- emphasize the point of order raised by Sen. Wetangula. With all due respect, I think the explanation you have given is slightly outside what Sen. Wetangula was saying. He says at the point where we are starting to vote as a House, is there a way or can we establish a way or should the Chair go out of his way to establish that, in the House, there is that threshold. I think that is the point; not that the numbers are not there. Even if it meant that all the delegates stay on one side of the House and the non-delegates on the other side so that, at least, before we go through that whole motion of voting, we make sure that we have enough delegations. If, in fact, it happens that there are some heads of delegation who are not here and there are some Senators who could very well have been given that mandate, but they were not given – that is a different story. We should not have proceeded, looking at the point raised, if we had counted the delegations and we saw we do not have 24, I think that is the point."
