    "content": "Order! Hon. Members, you will realize that the Chair has no authority to direct the Government on what to do. You will also realize that there are provisions in the Standing Orders as well as in the Constitution to deal with such matters, if you are not satisfied. You will also realize that we cannot spend the whole day dealing with one issue. Mr. Assistant Minister, the issues of Constitution that you have raised and the practice itself--- It is the opinion of the Chair that this is a weighty matter and, under those circumstances, the Chair can only do what it can do; which is to direct the matters to the relevant Departmental Committees. In matters of the Constitution which the Chair is seized with, and the issues which have been raised, I direct the relevant Committees to move with speed and report back to the House in one week’s time. In the event that hon. Members would want to pursue this any further, you have provisions in the Standing Orders to do that."
