You can see that the Bill as initiated by this House has gone through various changes, including finally having a Bill that has removed the fora that were provided for in the ward and the constituency. This is the benefit of a bicameral legislature. The reason we have a bicameral legislature is to facilitate dialogue and consultation to the extent that, finally, you agree on something that both Houses think is good for the country.
