Yes! I want to explain the following:- Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman and my honourable colleagues, when you look at Clause 44, it does not say that the first wife shall be informed. What these provisions are saying are the details which should be in the notification and I think you should support their deletion. I want to beg for your audience on this. These are the particular details which the husband has to put in the notification. What will happen is that he will file the notification there. The provisions do not say your husband will have to inform you ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Lastly, I want to state this: That, I am the last born of a first wife and I know the problems. I am the father of a daughter. I am a brother of a married sister and so, let us disabuse our minds that there are genders in the National Assembly who can protect some genders better. I am doing this for all those people I am related to, including my mother. So, this is good for the women, particularly the first wife. Think through it!

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The one most serious facility in a marriage is conjugal rights. Therefore, we must enforce it. For those hon. Members who fear, I am opposing this deletion. I know the hon. Member proposing it knows that under Order 22 of the Civil Procedure Rules, we have several provisions dealing with how to enforce conjugal rights. It is in our laws. Therefore, do not worry about enforcement. The one thing that we must have in marriage is this facility and it is very important.
