    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. I wish to thank all the hon. Members who have contributed to this Motion, and for the various positions they have really taken. But the most important thing for them to bear in mind is that it is the responsibility of Parliament to deal with these Bills within the constitutional framework. We have time constraints and were seeking to reduce time for publication, so that the rest of the time between now and 27th August, 2014, could be used properly for purposes of processing these Bills. The consequences for not allowing this Motion to pass will be that we will be required to take other measures, which include raising two thirds of hon. Members to support this amendment, failure to which Parliament may find itself unable to comply with its constitutional obligation, which is to pass these Bills. Therefore, I wish to urge hon. Members, that irrespective of what sentiments they hold, they should evaluate what options we have as National Assembly by 26th August, 2014. With those remarks, I beg to move."
