"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, as far as the dress code of the Senate and Parliament is concerned, the definition and clarification is that a male Senator or parliamentarian who comes to the Chamber should be dressed in a tie. I am in a tie and properly dressed. We have had this discussion here before, if you indulge me just for a second. The question has been and was: Can a Senator dress like Sen. (Eng.) Mahamud is? He has been allowed to come in with the religious hat because of his religion. Lady parliamentarians also brought the issue and asked whether one can be dressed in decent African attire. It was ruled that they can. The qualification for a male Senator is to be neatly and smartly dressed in a tie, but the qualification of the Senate Majority Leader assumes that one must have an overcoat. That is not contained in the regulations of Parliament."
