    "content": "Yes. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As I rise to second the Report presented to the House by the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, the observations that he has made and the reasons that he has given, I want to confirm that we deliberated at length on the observations that the Chairman has listed. We were at pains to arrive at that decision. May I add that this particular vetting would have presented the Committee and the House with an opportunity to examine the law as it is to address the state of the Judiciary. However, because this House has previously pronounced itself in respect of a situation where it has been served with a court order, it will always want to abide by the court order and observe the rule of law. We must lead in observance of the rule of law. There is danger in the House of Parliament being stopped midstream in the exercise of its processes in terms of parliamentary work. Vetting is one of those. Hon. Speaker, I second the Motion by the Chairman."
