    "content": "longer establishing a national establishment; you are establishing it for the union. Unions are not necessarily public and therefore it confuses the entire Motion. Having said that, I am sure that when in the fullness of time it comes to be debated where the location of that national stadium will be, we all know where most of the rugby players come from and I am quite sure that it will be somewhere in the vicinity of the lakeside. Unfortunately, the Motion continues with the tradition of referring to every region. This is something that I hope from the Speaker’s perspective you will be able to address because it is confusing to the intent of Parliament, to the essence of the Motion when we keep talking of every region. We all know that we do not have the former provinces as such. The closest you mean when you talk of every region is the counties or unless you mean the constituencies. So, talking of every region then brings all the complications and I would urge that in drafting Motions including this one, we focus on the establishment of a National Rugby Stadium and leave the idea of every region alone. In any event, sports also falls within the ambit of county government. County governments must also assume some responsibility financial and otherwise in establishing some of these facilities. I support except that I have a big issue with the framing of Motions as urging and not resolving and they end up being merely some wish list that does not go anywhere and sometimes I wonder whether it is an effective use of our time. However, with those few remarks I support."
