    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I rarely agree with hon. Duale but on this one, fortunately, I agree with him. When a matter is a money Bill, it must have the approval of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. Not only does it have to have approval, but also the necessary consultations as per the Constitution. I have moved two Bills before this House. In fact, as at this morning, the same Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs moved an amendment to my own Bill, after consultations with the Budget and Appropriations Committee. We were inserting issues that are of budgetary nature. So, that is the way to go. More fundamentally, I have been trying to raise this issue with the Speaker’s Panel. The Speaker’s Panel keeps on giving us conflicting guidance on issues which are unconstitutional. I want to urge the Speaker’s Panel to sit and go through the correct process when a Bill or a provision of a Bill is considered unconstitutional.
