It seems that the address made the eve by the Senator Simon Dieuseul Desras President of the Senate who had declared " I urge you fellow Commissioners, to do the task with the consciousness of a mission sacrosanct not concede any compromise [...] to not make of you of auxiliary of strategies unavowable, and be perceived as complicit of trends malicious, unjustified and unexplained delays..." did not have any effect on the consciousness of parliamentarians...
