So, let us agree here that there are clear provisions in the Constitution and in our own Standing Orders. Do not ask me to set aside this ruling because I will not. So, let us deal with the matter at hand, but do not tell me to set it aside. Do not also say “while I was away”. I was following the proceedings very keenly, including the atrocious remark and request by the Deputy Minority Whip that the issue of threshold is interpreted, that two-thirds be deemed to be two-thirds of the Members present, yet the Constitution is so clear. Unless, Hon. Members, we are not addressing the issue at hand, that can only be a statement which is addressed to some other forum and not this one. We are dealing with a constitutional provision. What does it say? It provides for two-thirds of the Members of the National Assembly. How many are the Members of the National Assembly and how many times The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
