A few days ago, you passed a message that I should inform the Chairperson of my Committee about the Local Content Bill and that he should be here to defend that Bill. Just before I got here I told him: “Sen. Moi, your Bill is here and I was given a message. Again, while I do not speak for him, I actually passed the message. Besides that point, as colleagues in this House, if anybody asks a question with regards to any Standing Order, which I do a lot as you know, they do not do that because of ill motive or lack of support to the public. We all know that Sen. Moi was there a few days ago and he has been supporting this process. Where is the goodwill from colleagues? Therefore, I am, once again, asking where the goodwill for colleagues is. For instance, as a newcomer who is not very familiar with some of the issues within the Standing Orders, I find it very intimidating to ask without being judged so harshly, as has been done this afternoon. I thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."}
