Madam Deputy Speaker, I have followed what Sen. Sakaja said very keenly and you have said that there is a Report that has been tabled in this House. How are we expected to comment on it and we have not even read it? Wait, if the report-- --

This is a very serious point of order. If anyone else has a different one, they can raise it. The issue here is that was the Report moved? Are we debating it for adoption?
