    "content": "been withdrawn... I approved the request yesterday. Therefore, the Clerks have no business placing the Bill on the Order Paper again. So, that settles the matter. What would have been objectionable or offensive to the rules of the House is if we were going to give an opportunity for the Bill to be brought again without the Question being put as contemplated in Standing Order No.53(3). The Bill was withdrawn after explanation by the owner of the Bill, who is the Leader of the Majority Party. If he desires to proceed with the intentions contained in the Bill, he will then have to re-publish it. I appreciate that Members consult or get consulted, but whatever method of consultation or facilitation, you would have still done your work. The Leader of the Majority Party read the Standing Orders and saw an opportunity available to him in Standing Order No.140 and wrote requesting leave to withdraw, which I acceded to. That should therefore settle the matter and we should proceed with the rest of the business. Is it the case that, that is the only business Members had come in large numbers to transact and to fulfill their legislative duty?"
