    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I think as you have guided us, this matter need not detain us, but there are two preliminary points. First, I think the Hon. Chairman only mentioned tomorrow 5th, but, actually, the Memo talks of four different expiry dates because they were gazetted differently. So, it is from 5th and 20thDecember, 14th February and 22nd May. Not all are expiring together. Secondly, it is unfair for the Chairman to blame Members for not having read. The Memo was addressed to the managers who are not our employees, but it was copied to the Clerk of the National Assembly. My request would be that we request the Clerk to circulate it to Members whose managers may not have contacted them so that they can see the contents of the Memo. If they see the contents of the Memo, then the issues raised by most Members and Hon. Gikaria will be responded to. Paragraph 7 actually responds to it specifically. It goes more than just to restate the provisions of the Act. It actually states that in the transitional period, after stating that process of replacement, it is only when that process is done and then the new members can take office. Until then, the old members continue and so any legal interpretation to the contrary might be erroneous. What it does is to warn us that those whose tenure of their members expires as early as tomorrow and you want to replace them, you will start the process. If you want to retain The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
