    "content": "If you look at several of the pieces of the legislation that have come before this House--- I am hoping that the drafts people in the office of the Attorney-General will take this more seriously because we keep deleting them and they keep on bringing them back. This issue of co- option of people into boards is a very wrong approach and a wrong way of dealing with things. I want to challenge the Leader of the Majority Party that: Please I know that you would probably be representing the Government interests but sometimes it is good to bring the technocrats here so that they do not take us through the same process over and over again. There is a clause that we keep deleting and they keep bringing it back. It is the issue of co-option. You do not co-opt. You hire consultants. Otherwise, you are bringing a board through the back door whether it is in subcommittees or the main board. They can shorten our process by not bringing us things that we have to automatically delete."
