"content": "(HBC) or a Committee feels the urgency. We are not committing any crime this morning. Rather, we are working within Standing Order No.120. Secondly, the first three Bills on the list lapsed during the 11th Parliament. We are just re- publishing them. The Copyright (Amendment) Bill and the Election Offences (Amendment) Bill were introduced in the 11th Parliament. I am sure when we form committees and as they mature, you will deal with them. One of the functions of a Member of Parliament is to legislate. Nobody can deny Members of Parliament that fundamental role for it is in the Constitution. You and I are here to represent our people and to bring legislation that will make the lives of our people better. So, that is my role. It is for the plenary to either agree or disagree with my proposal and any legislation which comes to this House."
