    "content": "On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Neither the hon. Attorney-General nor my learned brothers and sisters who have spoken have addressed the root cause of the problem. The root cause of the problem the Attorney- General is facing in his office is the Government Proceedings Act that came into force on 18th December 1956. The Government Proceedings Act specifically provides in Section 21(4) that:- “Save as provided in this section, no execution or attachment or process in the nature thereof shall be issued out of any court for enforcing payment by the Government of any money or costs, and no person shall be individually liable under any order for the payment by the Government or any Government department, or any officer of the Government as such, of any money or costs.” Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, under these circumstances, would it not be in order to ask the Attorney-General to sweep the Attorney-General’s chambers by initiating the process of making an amendment to this Act so that there would be a staggered process under which the Government can have attachments against it?"
