always check against the manifesto of the Elected Members for three years, and see how much that they have promised has been done. You can also see from motions which I hope will be brought forth in this meeting more frequently to how a particular member responds to a particular issue.
So, to sum up my points, it is a responsible body that we cherish what we think, and what we decide, and in order to achieve that research should be done first. At the end of the day, I feel sure that all of us here are accountable to the public and I would urge Members to support my motion so that we can have a good think so that if and when we decide to have meetings open, it has been done through a proper thinking process, and if we decide the meetings should not be open, at least we have encountered all the arguments in its favour and we have heard the argument against it and come to a rational decision, that is all I have to say.
The question on The honourable Maria TAM's motion was put.
The motion was carried with 16 votes for and eight votes against.
