    "content": "The Chairman of the Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade brought to this House the Finance Bill, which has the intention of dealing with measures to raise revenue in this country. What is being introduced by the present amendment is something that is completely different from issues of taxation. Composition of the NSSF Board and the quorum of that Board’s meeting has nothing to do with the Finance Bill or raising of revenue in this country. In my opinion, the reason that we have this Standing Order is to make sure that new matters are not brought to the Committee of the whole House that are completely different from what the House anticipated. This is supposed to give the Committee and the stakeholders a chance to ventilate on those issues. This proposed amendment falls squarely within what is anticipated or unforeseen by this Standing Order and it should not be permitted. I seek your ruling on that one."
