"content": "(Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I had started by saying that Standing Order No.127 of the Senate provides that no Bill may be considered in all the three stages on the same day, unless with the leave of the Senate. The reason I have cited this Standing Order is because we need to understand the reason why in certain circumstances the Order Paper will contain the processing of the legislation within a day with the leave of Senate. I am sure there must be compelling and urgent reasons for that. So, there is nothing extraordinary about it so long as the Senate gives leave. Mr. Speaker, Sir, is the matter in question urgent? I am entitled to my own view. Those who have the opposite view are also entitled to it. In my view, the matter in the Order Paper that we are addressing ourselves to today - that has been read and in your subsequent Communication - is extremely urgent. It is the most urgent national issue today. I am on a point of order and I wish the Chair could guide the House on that. I am not debating and after my point of order, the interventions can follow."
