    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. As I rise to support this Procedural Motion, I want to raise an issue generally of Bills, particularly during the Second Reading. I have noticed many times that we do not get committee reports. We go to Second Reading and discuss very important matters when the reports of the relevant departmental committees have not been brought to the House. I know that Standing Orders allow that we can continue with the discussions even without committee reports. However, I know that many times Members may not have time to go into a lot of details. Committee reports guide people. In future, we should make an effort to ensure that as we proceed to the Second Readings of Bills, we have reports from the relevant departmental committees."
