The Hon. (Dr.) Ramanathan Archchuna
Hon. (Dr.) Ramanathan Archchuna raised a Point of Order stating that, for the third time, he had not been allocated speaking time and that the matter was being referred to a committee. He also objected to not being included as a Party Leader in the Parliamentary Business Committee, noting requests for greater Opposition representation, and asked the Speaker to allow him to speak rather than leaving the matter to the Leader of the Opposition.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Sir, I rise to a Point of Order.
¶ 02 Good morning to all. Mr. Speaker, for the third time I raise this: I have not been given speaking time—this is being referred to a committee. Secondly, I have not been included as a Party Leader in the Parliamentary Business Committee; more Opposition representation has been requested. Mr. Speaker, I ask whether I can be allowed to speak—this cannot be determined by the Leader of the Opposition.
