    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This point of order raises very fundamental issues. I am happy the Leader of the Majority Party has brought it up and he is supported by the Leader of the Minority Party. I hope that the issues which have been canvassed will elicit well researched guidance from your Chair. There are certain issues which arise and which must be addressed. One is how effective is our system of induction of new Members? We have to relook at that, because most of the resource persons during induction are members of staff who are fairly senior. Unfortunately, for Members of Parliament, once they arrive here, they assume that they are more senior than the staff that they have found here. But some of the staff are senior than them. So, when someone they consider junior trains them, they do not take it seriously. That is one. Sometimes, when I watch committee proceedings, I feel so ashamed and I feel like closing my eyes when I imagine that the men and women I am seeing in front of me are the ones that I call my colleagues. It is very embarrassing. I think the problem that we must address is the craving for media attention. It is a craze!"
