Yes, I understand you. However, go back to what the Chairman did, so that we are together in this. On page 169 of the Order Paper, the Chairman proposed, and we carried the Question, “that Clause 4 of the Bill be amended in subclause (2) by deleting the expression “subject to Article 234(5) of the Constitution”. Do you see that phrase?

Instead of that, your amendment seeks to insert some words.

Yours is also to delete. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

Sorry, the Chairman was consulting and reflecting on himself with the able help of the Clerks-at-the-Table. What has happened is that both of you are deleting, but you have an insertion. In other words, you prefer a few words to be inserted. Since the action you are doing is the same, I rule that you prefer a further amendment to paragraph (a) of subclause (2) because the deletion has been acted upon by the House. So, what we can do is only to propose a further amendment. Let us hear you on it.

I will allow you to have a go at that, Member for Ainamoi.

Member for Rarieda, can we hear you on part (b)?
view
25 Mar 2015 in National Assembly:
All right. . The way your amendments have come is very complicated and we are trying to get through the maze. What the Chairman has done is to remove the words “as far as it is appropriate to do so,” yet your amendment is to include some words immediately after the words which have already been deleted. So, there are no words before which you are able to insert.

25 Mar 2015 in National Assembly:
No, do not explain. We have to move on. The solution will be that you propose a further amendment.
view
25 Mar 2015 in National Assembly:
No, without explaining. Just go to it and do a further amendment.

25 Mar 2015 in National Assembly:
No. Speak to the HANSARD and speak straight to what you want to amend. So, read to us what exactly you want us to insert.
