    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we must appreciate even as we debate this report and take note of the same, that the paradigm has shifted. This Constitution has taken this country to a completely new dispensation. When you look at Article 10 of this Constitution which sets the national values and principles of governance, it speaks of a new order and regime in whatever we do. The Article says that these values apply to anybody who is interpreting this Constitution and to anybody who is enacting or applying any other law other than this Constitution; or to any authority or anybody making or implementing public policy decisions. These values are just for the record. To remind ourselves, these values include patriotism, national unity, sharing and devolution of power, the rule of law, democracy and participation of the people, human dignity, equity, social justice, inclusiveness, equality, human rights, non-discrimination and protection of the marginalized, good governance, integrity, transparency and accountability and sustainable development."
