    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I have been listening quite attentively to the raging debate and I would like to shed light. The written law also provides, “according to the Standing Orders”. So, the Standing Orders submit to the written law and the written law submits to the Standing Orders. The question for your determination is whether the three-year membership has elapsed and when that duration began. I wish to submit to you that all the Committees of the House were formed when we came to the House in 2008. This House, in its wisdom, decided to review its Standing Orders, and in 2009, re-appointed all Committees afresh, including the oversight Committees, that is, the Public Accounts Committee and Public Investments Committee which serve for three years. The entire membership of most of those committees started afresh on 17th June, 2009 and got the new mandate and lease under the new Standing Orders. Section 27 (1) of the CDF Act says: “According to the Standing Orders.”"
