Hon. Chamara Sampath Dasanayake directed a procedural complaint at the Speaker, asserting that party leaders — rather than ordinary MPs — control the parliamentary agenda through their meetings. He called on the Speaker to first discipline party leaders before imposing order on backbench members.
Mr. Speaker, party leaders—not ordinary MPs like us—hold meetings and decide the agenda. Please set your members in order first, before setting us in order.
