Jennifer Shamalla and Hon. Gladys Shollei smiling, “it will be inchoate; it will be premature”. Let us not go to the merits of the Bill. Let us only debate the reasons given for the setting up of the Ad Hoc Committee. If anybody has any issues as to whether the House has power, I have already clarified it. You just have to look at Article 124. I hope we are clear so that we do not spend a lot of time explaining the Bill. If you explain about the Bill now, what will you say when the report of the Committee is brought to the House? Indeed, the Leader of the Majority Party has said quite rightly that the various members of public or groups that may desire to appear before the Committee will be at liberty to make whatever comments regarding that Bill. So, that report of the Committee will encompass and cover all those presentations and comments that will have been made by various people. Let us not now respond to things about the Bill that may have appeared in something called Twitter or Instagram . As the Leader of the Majority Party has explained, the Bill is now public and is in public domain, but the debate is not about the contents. It is only about the setting up of this Committee. For instance, you may comment and say that you think Hon. Gladys Shollei should not be a Member of the Committee. Those are the kind of things that you can comment on. Do not tell us about the Bill. We are not yet at that point. That being clear, hopefully, Hon. Members, I proceed to propose the Question."
