"content": " That is a handicap that is there. The issue is that we have three options. The Deputy Speaker gave them to us - passing it, amending it or rejecting it. The only issue is that for whatever we do, there are consequences in terms of the numbers. If we are passing it, we need a simple majority. If we are rejecting or amending it, we need a two-thirds majority. On specific issues like this one which also needs the Senate, we would need the concurrence of the Senate. Hon. Members, let us not take a lot of time on this. I can see hon. Mbadi is very interested in speaking to it. I do not think I will give you time. I am going to give the Leader of the Majority Party, and we will have to proceed. I know hon. Members want to be heard. Most of you have been heard."
