The matter is before the Full Court. The Attorney General is responding to why the Opposition Leader is no longer relevant to the budget cuts case.Opposition Leader David GrangerWhile the Opposition Leader and Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh were parties in the legal matter they were ruled out of the budget case given that the two are protected by parliamentary immunity. Although Speaker of the National Assembly Raphael Trotman is also protected by parliamentary immunity, it was related that the Speaker would have been the facilitator of the combined Opposition’s unanimous 2012 budget cuts vote.Williams,Cheap MLB T-shirts, to the learned judges, stated that the Opposition Leader was not given a fair hearing as to why he should remain in the budget cut case. Williams charged that the CJ’s ruling was contrary to Article 144(8) of the Constitution and the rules of natural justice; which states that ‘any Court or other tribunal provided by law’ in determining the existence/extent of any civil right or obligation shall be established by law and shall be independent and impartial; and where proceedings for such a determination are instituted by any persons before such court or other tribunal, the case shall be given a fair hearing within a reasonable time.Amidst the numerous authorities laid in support of this argument, Williams added that his client’s right to a fair hearing, is also a right to make a representation.Williams added that under Article 172(2) of the Constitution; his client wished to waive his parliamentary immunity which protects him from prosecution during his participation in the National Assembly.
