The presence of both the words “other” and “necessary” gives me a little difficulty. The word “necessary” is deliberately put there. If it is meant to have a plenary meaning, then the word “other” attenuates that meaning. Therefore, I would suggest that if you mean “or necessary amendments”, then that necessity must be defined, because it may be ample or it may be circumscribed. If it is suggested that the necessity comprises all those conditions which might have come into existence since the reference of the Draft to the Drafting Committee, then, of course, it will have a plenary and ample meaning, and in that view, it is not merely formal or consequential; but the word “other” comes in the way of our giving this amplified meaning to the word “necessary”. Therefore, Sir, I would like the President or some Member with authority to explain to us what the word “necessary” means, and if the meaning that I have attached to it is the meaning, well and good; and if that is not the meaning that word is unnecessary; but if that is the meaning, then the word “other” may kindly be dropped.
