    "content": "lost and you cannot transfer that frustration to this House. You cannot use this House to settle political scores. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Report is not tenable in law. Therefore, it should be thrown out to allow this House to proceed with its work. It does not matter whether a party brings one nominee or 100 nominees. I believe it is acceptable. Somebody made reference to Article 50 in his proper interpretation. It means that the nine Members should be from diverse backgrounds and from both genders. However, it does not say anything about the multitudes of people who may apply. Looking at the law upside down is the wrong way of dealing with this issue. I do not think the Treaty requires that we go into the multitudes that come from each country. I do not think that is what they are talking about. They are talking about the nine. I believe when we pass it, the nine should include all manner of people and professions. This House is the one to decide, not the political bigwigs across the political divide. Unfortunately, that is what they are trying to do. They are trying to make this House a rubberstamp. It is time we rejected that kind of manipulation. With those remarks, I oppose."
