Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Chairperson, very briefly: a short while ago Hon. Dayasiri Jayasekara rose on a point of Order and made an erroneous statement. He is not in the House now. Violating Standing Orders 91(c) and (e), he attempted to misuse his authority in this House. Some Opposition Members who claim modernity try to make a mockery of parliamentary traditions, wasting everyone’s time and demeaning this House. I register my protest.
