"content": "Therefore, with all this put together, it has been possible for this House to visibly exert itself. It has shown some degree of independence which is a reflection that they have been properly supported. It also reflects the wishes of people. We also know quite well that there are three arms of Government; the Executive, the Judiciary and the Legislature. There has been a tendency to believe that the legislature is a lesser arm of Government for a long time. This is not true at all. It is a strong pillar like any other and it must be looked at that way. Particularly the opinion of those in the Executive towards the Legislature was: You know these are politicians. They are not seeing you as an arm of Government that is equally important. Indeed, we are more important because of the election process that we go through and which, therefore, gives us the necessary mandate."
