Duale has taken many words out of my contribution. Nonetheless, I will say something. Allow me to send a message of condolence to my party Chairman, Hon. Mbadi, who lost his mother two days ago. All of us as a House, I am sure our hearts are with him. We wish him well. Having said that, I am very happy with the renewed sense of responsibility by the Leader of the Majority Party. I wish that in future, we will be looking at these Bills in this manner. I was here yesterday and I sat through that debate. There were some very crucial debates in this Bill that we need to consider. I am rising on Standing Order No. 53 which says that:- “(2) At the conclusion of the debate, the Speaker shall put the question (3) Despite paragraph (2), the Speaker may, on the request of a member, defer the putting of the question to the following day in which case the Speaker shall thereupon nominate a time at which the question shall be put.” The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
