    "content": "had a paper given by Mr. Pheroze Nowrojee about the relationship between the organs of State. The fundamental point that Mr. Nowrojee was trying to make is that much has been said of the organs of State being separate – the whole notion of separation of powers. He sought to persuade us to believe that, indeed, whereas the powers are separate they are actually heavily co-related. The point I want to make is that I read the Bill. The general drift of this Bill is that the separation of powers is absolute. We need to remind ourselves what we were taught by Mr. Pheroze Nowrojee that, indeed, they are correlated. So, this idea of removing the Member of Parliament from functions that appear to be of an Executive nature, I think is false. I would like to request the Committee to review the amendments they will make so that they give the Member of Parliament a more central role without fearing that they are offending the Constitution."
