    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to go straight to the issues. This Bill was done with a lot of consultations. But I am a little bit surprised that a lot of what was inputted into the Bill at various stages was washed away by the Office of the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs. We will recall that it was the discussion around a Bill of this nature that kept us here throughout December – in fact, from late November up to the end of December. Reading through this Bill, everything we did in the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs has been washed away. I do not know whether this is not the beginning of the same impunity that led us to the problems that we are talking about. I was not here but I am told that the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs is in limbo. It may be so but it is more to do with the leadership by the Office of the Chairman of the Liaison Committee. That matter should have been sorted out and it is a shame that, up to this hour, we have not resolved the problems in the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. That Committee is capable of working and delivering to this House as it has always done."
