"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to add my voice to some sentiments that have been raised by fellow Senators. The reason why I raise the concern is because these kinds of reports have got far reaching political implications. They are not light matters. They could kill careers and give wrong impressions on individual Senators. My major worry is that this report casts aspersions on the mandate of the Senate. If you consider why the First Senate was killed, you will see that it was because of such kind of careless implications. The Senate is being targeted. You know that the Senate is the key pillar supporting devolution. Anybody trying to give the impression that individual Senators in this Senate are not executing their mandate or that they are only performing at 40, 41 or 20 per cent is a wrong implication. Cumulatively, if you consider that, if somebody then comes up with another proposal that why do we need the Senate, what will we say? 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."
