Articles 35 and 31 of the Constitution. The moment it does that, it touches on the privacy and confidentiality on matters between a client and an advocate. It should be introduced as an independent Bill so that it is debated rather than being sneaked in now as it can be seen. As we stand, it is being sneaked in so that it passes as the Finance Bill, but it is not a Finance Bill per se.
