"content": "Allow me to spend a few minutes to remind Members of the history of Parliament. Prior to 1999, Parliament was a department of the Office of the President in the Executive. In this regard, the calendar of the House was controlled by the Executive. Parliament was opened and closed at the whims of the Executive. The Legislature was able to emancipate itself from the Executive by way of Constitutional Amendment No.3 of 1999 entrenching the Parliamentary Service Commission in the Constitution. I am sure Members will remember that sometimes, sessions of the House were suspended for Members to go to the airport to receive the President.
