    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am rising under Standing Order No.146 which speaks to the reintroduction of Bills after they have been rejected after the Third Reading in this House. I do not have to read that particular Standing Order because you know it. The determination I am requesting that the Chairs makes is; given the provisions of Article 112 of the Constitution which provides that a Bill like this one will have to get concurrence of the National Assembly and recalling that a similar Bill was before the National Assembly, in fact, last month and it was rejected; could you make a determination whether it is procedural for us to continue with this Bill knowing that this Bill would be seeking for concurrence in the National Assembly which already has rejected a similar Bill? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like you to guide me and because of your unique position as a lawyer and my equally unique position as a long serving legislature in this country, this matter is unprecedented and requires clarity."
