    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, let us not try to miss the point. No one is disputing the fact that the mandate of this House is to legislate. What we are saying is that the proposed amendment goes to the heart of the Act itself. Therefore, the manner in which it has been brought is not acceptable, and it cannot be allowed. This is because the mandates of the Communications Authority and the Competition Authority are very clear and distinct. Therefore, to attempt to water down the mandate of the Communication Authority through a miscellaneous amendment is being mischievous. I am of the view that the only route available to us in these circumstances is for us to shelve this debate and suspend this matter as suggested by my colleague, Hon. Wamunyinyi, in order for us to move this country forward without creating unnecessary emotions."
