The Hon. Nalinda Jayatissa (Dr.)
Nalinda Jayatissa said the privilege matter raised by Dayasiri Jayasekara should not be turned into a wider debate after the Speaker had agreed to give a ruling. He argued that parliamentary disruptions occur when CIABOC investigations advance and urged the Speaker not to allow such interventions, requesting a ruling on the privilege issue within a few days.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, you gave Hon. Dayasiri Jayasekara space to raise a privilege matter and then announced you would give a ruling. If everyone now turns this into a debate and adds points, it makes no sense. Also, this disturbance is clear: whenever CIABOC investigations proceed, those affected rise and start speaking. That should not be allowed in Parliament. Hon. Speaker, please deliver your ruling on this privilege issue within a few days.
