Members, remember I have already ruled that I am not allowing comments on any of the petitions because there is a lot of other business and the House is due to go on recess later today. Remember that is in your own Standing Orders. Just look at it. You provided that the Speaker may, and not shall, for a period of not exceeding 30 minutes. So, because of the business that is before the House, I have already told you that I have exercised my discretion and determined that there shall be no comments or clarifications on any of those petitions. Obviously, I am alive to the seriousness of the petitions that I read out. I am sure Hon. Pukose would have wanted to speak for not less 35 minutes. That would have exceeded the time allowed for all petitions. So, please, there are no comments. I have looked through all those petitions and approved them, after due consideration, because every one of you, in terms of Article 95(1) represents the people. So, the people you represent can bring all manner of issues to you. They need to hear that you heard them and you brought it. As to the merits and demerits, that will now be determined when the relevant committee brings a report. I think it is at that time that various comments will be entertained. So, let us not go there. Let us go to the next Order."
