Hon. Sunil Handunnetti stated that Members may seek clarification from the Speaker but cannot direct or order the Speaker. He emphasized that protecting the dignity of the Speaker is necessary to uphold the dignity of Parliament, and questioned the repeated pattern of conduct challenging that principle.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 As per practice, anyone may seek clarification from the Speaker, but no one has the right to order the Speaker. The dignity of the Speaker is the dignity of this House; we are all bound to safeguard it. Why this constant pattern?
