"content": "As far as the issue of amendments, which are proposed by Members is concerned, it is within our Standing Orders. Earlier on when the Leader of the Majority Party was reading the business before the House next week, he urged those Members who intend to make proposals to amend the various clauses and other provisions in the Finance Bill to begin preparing. Those proposed amendments are always approved by the Speaker on the basis of constitutionality. They should comply with the Constitution. Two, they must be relevant to the Bill which has gone through public participation. If a Member introduces a matter which is alien to the Bill or offends any provisions of the Constitution, then the Hon. Speaker has the power to reject any proposed amendment."
