    "content": "Hon. Members, I do not need to refer to anything because I am aware of those minutes. I have consulted them. That is why Hon. Katoo ole Metito has read it out clearly. It shows that CORD has not been forthcoming. For avoidance of doubt, let me say that Standing Order No. 17(3) provides that the discharge of a member of the Chairperson’s Panel shall not take effect until the House has approved the Motion for replacement. The Speaker has the discretion to give notice to the HBC in Standing Order 17(1) to replace a member in the Chairperson’s Panel. Having given notice to the HBC within seven days according to Standing Order No.17 (2), then we should get a Motion. It is for that reason that there was this consultation up to a point when I had to raise it in the HBC as the Chair that this is becoming embarrassing. We are supposed to have four Members in the Chairman’s Panel. The minutes are very clear on what CORD said and it was taken to be an honest and truthful expression of what the coalition was thinking; that within that week, they would supply us with a name for onward transmission to the House."
