Allow me to finish. The strict interpretation of that Standing Order, therefore, is that the business for which this House was gazetted to sit has to be concluded.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I appreciate the input by Hon. (Eng.) Gumbo. Being an engineer, I think he really knows what he is talking about.
