    "content": "We are rejecting Clause 9 because the Senate is proposing a mechanism that does not give the Senate timelines with which to ratify this natural transaction. It also goes against our own Standing Orders and the Constitution that require us to go to mediation if the two Houses do not agree. The proposal by the Senate says that if the National Assembly approves something and the Senate rejects it, yet it emanated from the other House, it would be stood approved. Our Standing Orders and the Constitution require that if there is disagreement, we go for mediation. That is the reason we have disagreed with the Senate. They had put a lot of effort in putting a lot of clauses, but there is a problem with that. That is why we have disagreed."
