"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this is the same story again. I am looking for the guy who was holding brief for the Attorney-General (AG). I do not know where he is. He was the one who was bringing his letters. This is another place where the Attorney-General erred. He removed the functions of treaty-making and ratification from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to his office. World over, from the Vienna Convention, treaties are done by the foreign office. Secondly, the Attorney-General decided that ratification will be done by both Houses. But it is an exclusive function of the National Assembly. It has nothing to do with counties. There is nowhere treaties are ratified by counties. He is giving the function to the Senate. Well done, Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. At times it is important to defend your turf. That is why the presidential system of government has given you powers to defend your territory from the Attorney-General. I hope the people who are holding brief for him and others can listen from wherever they are sitting."
