"content": "Hon. Members, the matter that has been addressed by the Member for Chepalungu is of a very grave nature. Unfortunately, the matter is being addressed belatedly. The manner in which we are supposed to live within the Standing Orders is such that any matter which is out of order, and that disorder is committed in the face of the House, such as this one which was committed on Wednesday, last week, ought to be raised instantly so that the Chair has an opportunity to ascertain whether or not, in fact, there is a breach. So, given that this matter was not raised when business was being transacted, it is far too late now for the Chair to establish the veracity of this assertion. So, I am afraid I will not make any finding on it in the House. However, I am prepared to deal with the matter if it is referred to the Speakerâs Office in writing because we have other avenues of addressing this matter including pursuant to the provisions of the Powers and Privileges Act. It is an avenue we will consider if we receive suitable presentation and/or complaint."
