"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am aware that the petitioner is in order to present the petition before this House. My appeal to the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade is that this petition be taken seriously in terms of deliberations. This petition is about an independent commission. We have a number of constitutional independent commissions in this country. My appeal is that this petition should be dealt with in a way that would clear all the issues to do with independent commissions. I am getting concerned that such a petition could be coming to this House to scare independent commissions from doing their work. I want this Committee to take this thing seriously so that as a result of its report, this House will stamp the authority that independent commissions are, indeed, independent commissions and they must be allowed to do their work constitutionally."
