10 Jun 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if it is agreed that inflicting capital punishment is, indeed, degrading and inhuman in accordance with international criminal law, then to keep 3,215 prisoners on death row indefinitely is a crime against them. The State is committing a crime against these people. Up the circumstances, could the Ministry confirm whether these convicts will be released or they will be hanged?

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The only Question on the Order Paper for the Prime Minister is Question No.QPM/009.

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I do not see the point of order in what the hon. Member has said, but all the same, I was saying that the European Union Parliament sits outside Brussels regularly. As summer is setting in, in Europe now, Members of the European Parliament are packing their trunks and getting their staff ready to move out of Brussels. What is the policy behind that move?
