You have seen issues of criminal and civil nature arising in this Bill. I would like to say that some of the matters not covered here are covered by the Penal Code. For example, the last time when we had problems in the House, when Members rose against other Members for differing of opinion on the Security Laws (Amendment) Act--- Suppose somebody committed manslaughter, murder or a misadventure to an extent that somebody lost an eye, would that person not have been personally liable for that commission? Would that person not have been personally liable in a court of law ...

Therefore, I wish to support this very important Bill, which I will classify as one of the constitutional Bills pending. Before we serve others, we should first serve the House, so that we make sure that the House has followed the law before it begins to execute laws for the rest of the country.

They do not have a law to that effect right now. So, the question is: What method will you use to engage the private sector? Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman and I oppose.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important Bill. Article 160 (5) of the Constitution allows a judge or any member of the Judiciary, while deliberating on any matter and following the law, to have no liability whatsoever - whether criminal or civil. This is lacking when it comes to Parliament because the three institutions of a government - the Judiciary, Parliament and the Executive - all enjoy separation of powers. For equity to be among the three of them, then the same sub-article should be imported when it applies to Parliament. ...
