"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am grateful to be given this opportunity to say a few words. First, I agree with you entirely that no other body, including the Judiciary or the Executive, can interfere with the internal workings or mechanisms within the National Assembly. That is a matter which is entirely within the province of Parliament and the various Committees. However, since we do not work in a vacuum, I was going to seek your direction. The High Court has now held that the nominations were unconstitutional, and no State organ is allowed to process any of those names. That leads us almost into legal anarchy. Could it be possible that this matter is revisited on Tuesday, so that we know exactly how to proceed? This is because we also cannot take the Judiciary for granted. I agree entirely that the internal mechanisms and processes of this House cannot be interfered with."
