SINGAPORE — One night in Parliament, the clock struck midnight — and MPs were still debating two competing motions on jobs and Singapore's foreign talent policy, more than 13 hours since the sitting began. By the time Leader of the House Indranee Rajah adjourned the House to «great relief» at 12.33am on Sept 15, 2021, Nominated MP Janet Ang had returned to the Chamber after leaving to celebrate her birthday over dinner with her family, while the birthday of Senior Minister of State Zaqy Mohamad had just begun. This is just one instance that reflects how the 14th term of Parliament has not just been active, but near relentless. For starters, this term of Parliament was not much longer than the last, with the difference being just 2½ months. But the tempo was higher with 162 sittings, up from 135, along with an unprecedented number of Bill and motion speeches, ministerial statements and adjournment motions. The number of occasions a PAP backbencher spoke during question time and orders of the day such as Bills or motions increased by 65 per cent from the 13th term of Parliament.
