    "content": "Hon. Members, the content of the prayer sought by the Petitioner, though not entirely unique, is a manifestation of the continued frantic yet genuine attempts by the citizenry to assist the country to fulfill the requirements of Article 81(b) of the Constitution, which provides that no more than two-thirds of the members of the elective public bodies should be of the same gender. You will note that part of the prayers sought by the Petitioner is included in the pieces of legislation proposed by the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs and the Leader of the Majority Party, who are proposing to amend the Constitution and other relevant statutes. In this regard, the Departmental Committee to which the petition should be committed should attempt to address the prayer sought by the Petitioner during his considerations of the various pieces of legislation proposed by the Committee and the Leader of the Majority Party. Hon. Members, therefore, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.227, this petition will now stand committed to the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs for consideration. I thank you. I believe Hon. Zuleikha Juma also has a petition."
