"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I totally agree that this is a problem that we have been dealing with, in the Senate from 2013. More than 30 Bills collapsed in the National Assembly at the end of the 11th Parliament. I can see that 60 or 70 are about to die in the National Assembly now. I am speaking knowing very well that when the BBI was established, chaired by Sen. Haji and Sen. Wako, being the shining light in that Committee, there was no single sentence in the report that mentioned about the Senate, the problems that we face under Article 110 of the Constitution, or the problem of movement of Bills from one House to the other. This is a paradox, because when I looked at that report – with utmost respect to my father, Sen. Haji – I properly understood why Senators participated in closing the Senate in 1966. It is possible for us to play a role in undermining our mandate."
