We are prepared to work with such a committee so that we develop certain laws that will help the Senate perform her responsibility. Let not anybody in this House look at that committee as a sinecure; a new committee in which we shall struggle tooth and nail to get into just because we want to sit in a committee. That mentality would be betraying our noble mission as Senators. The example that we have shown so far, that we are ready to serve even when the capacity and resources for doing so are very limited, will be tainted. We should not continue doing that forever because if we do not improve, people who come after us will suffer. It is our role, as elders, to make sure that we leave this world a better place than we found it. I must say that we must leave this Senate a better Senate than we found it. Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to support."
