Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Member, under Standing Order 91(8), no Member shall refer in a motion or debate to a matter that is sub judice or pending judgment. Your letter itself says “the Court has informed…”. Since this relates to a matter before Court and a decision is to be given, you cannot speak on it in Parliament.
