“The President may in relation to any proceedings in connection with the passing of the Constitution under Rule 38-R or this rule relax or suspend any of these rules.” This is a laughable, and a most unnecessary rule. I have already stated, Sir, that you have got inherent powers to conduct the business of the House, and you can certainly regulate this matter as well. The second aspect is this. We seek to provide for various matters, and then suddenly at the end we come to the last provision and say that notwithstanding any of these rules anything may happen. We have provided for various matters in 38-R and 38-RR and at the very end we say that the President may relax or suspend any of these. Why frame these rules and then say the President may relax these? Can the President not exercise his discretion? It is absolutely unnecessary and should be deleted.
