"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Indeed, this matter is very critical because we know the role that Parliamentary Service Commission plays under Article 127 of the Constitution. Hon. Speaker, on the NASA Coalition side, it is indeed true that this side is formed of coalition parties and for any decision to be made, there must be proper consultations and participation. Indeed, we have said it before. For example, the House Business Committee (HBC), the one that drives the agenda of this House, sat and said that all coalition parties must be represented. Pertaining to this list, consultation was done. Unfortunately, we have an internal mechanism of resolving the issue that we have at hand. My humble request to you, Hon. Speaker is, the leadership we have here is capable. We are trying to have a bottom up approach. Give us some little time in terms of consultations and in case of any amendment we will come back to you. Meanwhile, the way that Notice of Motion has been given, it is my humble request that it stays. However, before then, as the able leadership of the NASA Coalition, we are going to consult and come back to you. So, I beg for the business to move on. My concern is, if any communication is done to your office, I wonder how the Leader of the Majority Party is able to access it. Does he have a way of getting this accessibility or what? The way I understand it is that this matter was still under consultation and whatever was written pertaining our side.... How does he access our communication from our side to you? That is a concern that our side needs to know. Whatever comes to you pertaining to your office is confidential. We know that you have the capacity and capability and how the information sneaks out is what we are concerned about. I beg that we move on."
