    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. When you will be making that communication and consideration with regard to what the Senate Minority Leader has said, I would like you to make this a bit clearer. I took one of the Bills that you communicated to us to be one of them. You will recall that you communicated to us about the Order of Precedence and Titles Bill (Senate Bill No.11 of 2014). I have since gone through the work that took place in the National Assembly regarding this. I also remembered that this House, in the year 2013, had a Bill here called the National Flags Emblems and Names (Amendment) Bill, of 2013. That Bill in the National Assembly is the exact replica of what we did here. That means that the Bill which I led this House through and was passed, was plagiarised. After that exercise, their Bill has now been brought here and yet they expect us to act on that Bill. Since they are worried that we may remember these things, you are being warned. I notice that in the Order Paper, this very Bill that was an Act of “intellectual theft” is now a case of a First Reading. Will you allow a Bill that has already been debated in this House under a different name to go through the First Reading before you hold some consultative meetings with the Speaker of the Lower House? The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
