Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Today was a very special day for the two-thirds gender rule. We were supporting it fully. That is why I am seated on this side.

I wanted to draw attention to the fact that according to Standing Order No.95, we do not have the quorum. That is why we are not able to tackle business as it should be tackled. Based on that particular position, we should adjourn so that this business can be discussed seriously when we have the requisite quorum in the House.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. It is true that we submit to the House as a Committee. I am a Member of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research. We worked and now that we are in the House, it is the business of the House. Finally, it will be put to vote.

The position we took as a Committee was arrived at after great consultations. The Committee itself has people from the education sector. We thought we should have time for people in that area to consult widely so that finally when we get the document, it will be comprehensive for the education sector and not piecemeal. That is why I stand with the Chair and try to convince Members that we adopt the amendment as it is. We are doing a good work there, and we shall continue do so on behalf of the House.

Chair, I thought there is a lot of agreement that has been generated within the House. In the spirit of making good laws, I wish the key protagonists could quickly come to a consensus, so that we come up with a good law for the country.
