    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Clerk. I have a small house keeping matter. Mr. Clerk and the chair of these proceedings, you are aware about the provisions relating to leadership and integrity as contained in Chapter Six of the Constitution. Was there any process undertaken to make sure that those who apply for the position of Speaker actually would not undermine the authority of the Senate? This is by ensuring that there are no pending decisions against any of the applicants or no adverse finding against any particular candidate. Mr. Clerk, it would be terrible if at any one time the person who occupies the position of the Chair of this House has matters which were still pending or any adverse findings made by the previous Senate. That would undermine the authority of the House. I just wanted as a matter of clarity to know whether there has been compliance with the Chapter on Leadership and Integrity and that the House undertook a leadership and integrity test before putting the names before us for the process of electing the Speaker. Thank you."
