    "content": "I agree with the issue of the friends of the committee. As much as we are limiting it, it is a useful idea that was abused. Some people may have information at times that the committee requires or bring an element or angle that may be important. I know that it has been used relatively for parochial or selfish issues. Therefore, we need to re-organise it. I like the structures which we are putting in place. We are amending Standing Order No.195. We are saying that we remove participation in one part but as we go further, we are accepting participation. Those are areas which we will look at. We will have to look at further amendment. We can allow participation as long as you have put the restrictions on how the Member will present and what he will say. The chair should look at that before, so that when you get there and you are irrelevant, you can be told what you wanted to raise cannot be raised. That information that is useful and was considered before is brought before the committee."
