On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rose on a point of order yesterday under Standing Order No.94 regarding allegations that were made by Sen.(Dr.) Khalwale that have serious implications on leaders of both Houses, on the Somali Community and, by extension, on the Muslim Community.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am not discussing the character. I was talking about the statements. I am not discussing him individually. I am saying that such statements can be reckless.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I respect your ruling on this matter, but the substantiation that he is expected to bring only deals with half of it. We must express our thoughts on this matter.
