If we took this matter seriously and came up with training for our medical personnel, we would not witness a situation like the one I saw in my constituency when I was launching the games ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, having looked at the technical nature of this proposed legislation, the contributions and interests of Members in this House, would I be in order to move a Motion under Standing Order No.97 that we limit the time for each Member to five minutes, instead of the usual 10 minutes?

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Having noted that this is a fairly technical kind of proposed legislation and the interest Members have shown in it is little and considering that this is one of the first Motions we are having in this House, would I be in order to move a Motion under Standing Order No.97 that we limit the time for each Member’s contribution to five minutes instead of the usual 10?
