    "content": "Hon. Members, in conclusion, I have noted the concern raised by various Members on the apparent gender imbalance in the House leadership of the Minority Party. Though direct intervention into the manner in which the Minority Party decides to constitute its leadership is outside my purview, I am not precluded from reminding the Minority Party of the two-thirds gender principle which is entrenched in the provisions of Article 27(8) and 81(b) of the Constitution. Indeed, the provisions of our own Standing Order No.20(2)(b) enjoin the Minority Party to take gender balance into account when deciding the composition of its House leadership. However, it only extends to me pointing out that. I cannot therefore venture into resolving or attempting to resolve any complaints or grievances that any Member of the coalition of the parties may have against any decision taken and evidently shown to have been taken by the party leadership in making the decision."
