    "content": "Hon. Speaker, a distinction is to be created between a national day and a public holiday. It is evident as you commit that Petition to the Committee that it takes note that while the petitioner is talking about a national peace day requiring an amendment of Article 9, indeed you do not require to amend Article 9. Article 9(3) talks of three national days. However, the Public Holidays Act then prescribes other public holidays and they are 23 of them. I would suggest that in considering the Petition, consideration be made in terms of adding another public holiday to the Public Holidays Act, rather than the difficulty of amending the Constitution."
