"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in democracies that have a similar model or structures of government like ours such as the United States of America (USA) which envisages the State of the Nation Address once every year, effort is made to share that State of the Nation Address way in advance with the Minority. For example, when President Obama had given his final State of the Nation Address, a Republican Governor read the Republicans response. Effort is made to share with the other side the Statement in good time so that the Opposition, out of the rhetoric, prepares a response which is issued soon after the President makes his Address. Therefore, is it possible that your Office, in practice and in tandem with this democratic practice that we are also borrowing from other countries, causes the President to issue the State of the Nation Address in advance to this Side of the House so that it acquaints itself with the facts or contents therein and give a response immediately after the President has given his State of the Nation Address?"
