I regret very much that I cannot accept any of these amendments except the one proposing that the word “member” should be substituted by “elected member”, though the word “elected” is not a definite improvement. The draft would have thoroughly clarified the point: but in spite of this, if you wish to add the word “elected”, I am ready to accept it. Something has been said about the oath also. It is obvious that it will figure in the Constitution. At this stage, it does not seam necessary.
