"content": "Having followed that procedure, as long as the proposed amendments are relevant to what is there, after engaging with the stakeholders and the public in general, each Departmental Committee makes a report which reflects the views that they have collected. For instance, if the Committee publishes the Bill and invites the views of the public and other stakeholders and nobody appears, it cannot stop the House from going forward. It will make a report and say that they advertised for people to come and give views and nobody gave any views or that the views that they got offend parts of the Constitution and other existing legislations. To that extent, we cannot be bound by any decisions that the courts may wish to advance, and especially with regard to the procedures here. We have the responsibility to develop our own internal processes and rules of procedure, just like the courts. Hon. Members, we can proceed."
