"content": "One of the things the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs needs to crystallize is a mechanism in which we can have new voters being registered, because it takes too long to issue ID cards. The second thing is that we have just listened to the Leader of the Majority Party read the number of legislations that have been passed by private Members. It simply shows that the uptake or the number of private Members Bills that we channel through this House is not very much. I am hoping that when we come back for the next session, we can give a chance to many more private Members Bill because some people came to make certain laws and the act of law making is exciting. I am hoping that HBC in the next couple of sittings will give us space, room and create more time for private member legislations. The third thing is that I know a couple of Constitutional Law Bills have not been passed. I sit in the Parliamentary Caucus on Human Rights and, for us, it is always sad that the two-third gender legislation was never achieved both in the Senate and the National Assembly. I am hoping that the House can see a way in which it can help us realize it before the next elections."
