    "content": " On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. In that consideration, I also urge the Chair, after looking at the words “reservations” and the term being used “recommendations”, we also want the Chair to guide the House as to whether the President has the liberty under the Constitution to send new clauses when he is only entitled to exercise his right of veto by sending his reservation to Parliament about what is on the Bill. When the President goes beyond reservations, recommends and then drafts new clauses, that is not envisaged under any Article of the Constitution, more particularly Article 151. Lastly, we are done with Order No.8. There is no legitimate reason for us to step down Order No.9. Order No.8 was on its own. In fact, I painstakingly argued that we needed to remain in the Committee of the Whole to deal with Orders No.8 and 9 so that we finish and have a singular report back to the House. Those arguments were not upheld. I respect the ruling of the Chair even when I do not agree with it. We need to go to Order No.9. As long as we have quorum, deal with it and vote on it. If it gets 32 votes, it is rejected. If it gets less than 24, it is not passed and then we get a report."
