"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have followed very carefully what the Attorney-General is trying to say. What he is avoiding to tell this House and the country is that in the exercise of that power--- Within the same Constitution, there is limitation and it was mandatory. The Constitution is mandatory. It states it in mandatory terms that the President shall, within 14 days – If he has any amendments to make at all – bring those amendments. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the President brings them after eight months, the simple point that I am making, and I have quoted it to the Professor here, is very simple – it is simply not available! He is a creature of the Constitution. He exercises those powers under the Constitution. He has offended the Constitution. All we are saying is that, therefore, those powers are not available to him and he should use the powers that are available. The only power which is there now is for him to sign because he is guilty of latches."

I am placing before you information that can also be useful to you in your making the ruling, so that we may all be reading from the same script."

This law indemnified officers of Government when they harass and kill ordinary citizens who are supporters of the Government of the day. He needs to get his facts right."

In addressing, he has given us the chronology of events when this Bill was passed by this House to the date when the President received it. It is not the business of this House to know when the President received the Bill because the Attorney-General, who is also a Member of this House, should have transmitted the Bill once it was passed by this House. That is why the Attorney-General is a Member of this House. As to when the Bill was received by the President is not within our calendar. What is seized of this House is the calendar of the day we passed the Bill as a House. So, let us count the two weeks from the day this Bill was passed and let the Attorney-General address himself to why it delayed."
