    "content": "proceedings that are attendant to this important national day should reflect the unity and fusion of the organs of state particularly the Executive and Parliament. The importance of this occasion is also signified by the presence of members of the Judiciary who sit within the wall of the Chamber of Parliament. As I support this, I hope that next time we have a Presidential Address and there are such proceedings, when the President is within the precincts of Parliament, there should be a reflection of the distinct attribute of the attitude of the President as the Head of State. Therefore, both sides of the political divide should approach this occasion as an institution and not otherwise. Sometimes when we watch from the sideline when the two leaders from both Houses are entertaining the President and when the Senate Minority Leader tries to walk across, there is a red line. I do not think that should ever happen. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, having said that, since the Senate Majority Leader has an able assistant next to him on the left, I hope that the authority of the leadership of both sides of the Houses will be seen when we have this important day. In some countries, it is a day when the splendor, culture, spirit and happiness of the nation is all fused together on that very important day ready to listen to what the President has to say not as robots but as a Parliament which later on is going to examine the entire Speech. I truly support this Motion and hope that we pass it."
