    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. While I appreciate the Order of Business that the Majority Whip has just read out, I am concerned that there is a Bill I had sponsored, which had actually gone through Second Reading – The Retirement Benefits (Deputy President and Designated State Officers) Bill, 2014. The Bill was supposed to proceed to the Committee of the whole House many months back, just before we proceeded for recess. I am worried that this Bill is taking unnecessarily too long. I would have asked the Majority Whip, who sits in the House Business Committee, to try and prioritise it because this is unusual delay. The practice of this House is that once a Bill has gone through Second Reading, it takes a pretty short time for it to be concluded."
