    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is extremely sad for me as the Chairman to hear that there is another body outside this Senate that discusses issues that are before this House and that those bodies are so powerful to an extent that an Order Paper can today be overruled because of certain issues. There must be substantive reasons given by anybody who wants to move that this Bill should actually not go through the First Reading. There are no substantive reasons which have been given. The Senate Leader of Majority just came to me and went back there and said that we had discussed. I think this House should be serious. Anything that appears on the Order Paper should be given its due consideration. It is going to be in vain if this Committee will burn the midnight oil handling this matter and then it is just done away with in that manner. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg you to listen to what I am saying. You do not seem to be."
