    "content": "Hon. Speaker if we come back to deal with any messages, that will be taken as a special sitting. We will save time if we approve this Motion. Members should know that during a special sitting, we only deal with the gazetted agenda; nothing else. Therefore, if we are called for a special sitting, Hon. Speaker can only read to us the message from the President. We cannot act on that message on that particular day. The matter has to be sent to the relevant Committee of the House. We will be doing justice to this House, in terms of time and money, to give Hon. Speaker permission to receive any message from the President. You just direct it to the relevant committee, which should execute and process it. When it comes to tabling the Report of the Committee that is the time the House should come for the special sitting where we can receive, debate and act on that report. The Leader of the Minority Party read Standing Order No.85 in terms of anticipating debate. I think together with Standing Order No.42, as put by his colleague, Hon. Savula, they will resolve that matter for the time being. We suspend the operation of those two Standing Orders – Standing Order Nos.42 and 45 – during the time of recess and then we come back and they become operational. Therefore, I support the Motion and I urge my colleagues that we approve it."
