    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. At the outset, I would like to oppose this Report even though I am aware that there is a proposed amendment to the Report which, if it succeeds, I will support it. However, in the meantime, I wish to oppose this Report. I was listening very keenly to Hon. Katoo ole Metito when he was moving this Motion. I was unable to understand the logic informing the Report’s recommendation that the CORD Coalition should bring additional names as nominees. Even if you read the ruling of the EACJ and you read it together with Article 50 of the Treaty and now Rule 6(1), you will clearly understand that there is nowhere any party is compelled to nominate the maximum possible number, which is three times the party’s entitlement. If the Jubilee side, in their own wisdom, has chosen to nominate 15 names even though they have five slots, which is three times the five slots they have, there is nowhere in the ruling or anywhere else where we are compelled as CORD to do likewise. Therefore, the nominations by both Jubilee and CORD fall squarely within the rules The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
