“The ruling is very solid on the basis that it covered every single issue that has been raised in the contentions summarised in the application that had been filed to set aside the orders of the Supreme Court on October 18.”
“The ruling addressed each issue that had been raised and provided its reasons why it agreed or disagreed with either the applicant or the defendant on the other side and so I think it is a solid decision that has been rendered.”
“The Supreme Court was of the view that before you can deny people that representation, you must first conclude that a Member of Parliament who has been elected by the people has breached the provisions in the article that are the subject of the suit.”
“Now, the Supreme Court is of the position that as it stands now, because of the varying interpretation that had been put on those articles, you cannot come to a firm conclusion that MPs had indeed gone ahead to breach those constitutional provisions so do not hasten in concluding that they have breached articles but let the Supreme Court confirm the interpretation,” Bobby Banson said.
