• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, could we make the provision that is in the Constitution to say “not more than two-thirds” so that we make progress? I am proposing that we amend that particular clause, so that it reads not more than two-thirds or other agenda. view
