PT B U E B ˚K O S words :9OjV ::KOPQ gmjO v :f94 j4E Senator Syed Nayyer Hussain Bokhari: Sir, åthe Chairman conveniently ignored that status, and as such maliciously disregarded the Senate record to facilitate the appointment of Maulana Haideri as åLeader of the Oppositionç. The Chairman thus exceeded his jurisdiction by exercising powers not rooted in Constitution or validly made rules; in fact, he defied and violated the Constitution and conventions that require him to be neutral and impartial in the discharge of his functions. He is therefore liable to removal from office as well as membership of the Senate for stripping himself of the qualification for being åameenç or åhonestç under Article 62 (f). The Chairman acted with partiality to facilitate the election of Maulana Haideri; for which he not only distorted his own oath but also Article 63A. Sir, these are the remarks about the Chair of the Senate. Nobody approves it and I feel that the House should take notice of it and contempt proceeding should be initiated against the lady who has published this Article. ‹ U B :d€4 E 9¦ :?@Y˘o45 ::KB OPQ gmjO vE :f94 j4E

I think this article is uncalled for, particularly, when the Senate itself has seized up the matter and the debate is going on. That is another issue that the matter is subjudice to that extent before the Senate but to bring in disrepute to the Chair of a House, by

4 another member from the other House of Parliament is in itself an offence which constitutes a breach of Privilege. Mr. Chairman: What should be done in the matter than? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I think that Senator has undertaken to find out. So, we can wait for the course of the day but obviously I think that the House should take cognizance and refer the matter to the Standing Committee if it finally so decides.

I would rather talk more in terms of concepts, in terms of principles and in terms of the parliamentary traditions that should be set so that this issue of the Leader of the Opposition or any such related issue can in future in the light of your ruling be dealt with accordingly. This House and I myself have had the solid experience when for over one year this House remained without a Leader of the Opposition during the tenure of Musharraf, the dictator, although the Opposition was combined but the Chair at that time did not think it appropriate to nominate a Leader of the Opposition. So, I have been tainted with this experience myself and therefore, I will try and move in that light. Mr. Chairman, I am aware that certain issues have been framed by both Mr. Ishaq Dar and Mr. Swati and before I commence and place before you some of the points on which I would be trying to shed light or trying to assist you, let me say that it has been a very difficult task because I have tried to put aside my love and respect for Mr. Ishaq Dar. I have tried to put aside my great reverence for Maulana Haideri and I have also tried to put aside my political prejudices vis-…-vis the PML (Q) to try and assist the Chair in fair manner as is possible on my behalf.

17 Mr. Chairman, the issues on which I would be seeking to address you is number one; whether the Chairman Senate and this is an issue which you had pointed out yourself on the first day, whether the Chairman Senate of Pakistan has the power to review, recall, revisit or amend his ruling, once it has been announced. Number 2, whether Rule 2 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the Senate, 1988 pertaining to the Leader of the Opposition envisages a process of election? 6 B 6 B PC R B U E B :˚9:fx@:9Dv ™R :9O j V :KO :g4 m3 ::KOPQ gmjO v :f94 j4E Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Number 3, who constitutes the Opposition members in the Senate of Pakistan? Is it defined in the rules? If not then what is the criterion? Number 4, whether members of a single political party belonging to its parliamentary party in the Senate can claim rights, facilities and privileges other than its parliamentary party? No.5. Whether the members belonging to FATA have a status different to the other members of the Senate? No.6. Whether after the creation of a vacancy, the criterion on which the Chairman, Senate of Pakistan has to form an opinion be changed? Now Mr. Chairman, I would request you to kindly add another point to this. That when did the vacancy occur in the office of the Leader of the Opposition? Finally, Mr. Chairman, what should the order be? Mr. Chairman, straightaway let me take up my first point and that is whether the Chairman, Senate of Pakistan has the power and I would request you to bear with me on these words, review, recall, revisit or amend his ruling once it has been announced.

18 Mr. Chairman: You are using the words of the General Causes Act. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I will come to that later. Straightaway Mr. Chairman, I would like to take you to Blackãs Law Dictionary, the 6 th Edition. The first word that I am taking up is åreviewç at page No.1320 which says; Review: To re- examine judicially or administratively; a reconsideration, second view or examination, revision, consideration for purposes of correction used specially of the examination of a decision of a lower court or administrative body, by an appellate court or appellate administrative body. Next Mr. Chairman, I would like to take you to the word årecallç and the word recall in Blackãs Dictionary is at page No. 1267. Recall: A method of removal of official in which power of removal is either granted to or reserved by the people. Johns Vs. so and so, a public office may be removed from so and so under transfer to summon and then Mr. Chairman, we would move down and it is recall a judgment, to revoke, cancel, vacate or reverse a judgment for matters of fact when it is annulled by reasons of errors of Law, it is said to be reversed. Mr. Chairman, I would take you to the word åreviseç at page No. 1321. Revise: To review and re-examine for correction. To go over a thing for the purpose of amending, correcting, rearranging or otherwise improving it as to revise statutes or a judgment. Mr. Chairman, now I would take you to the word åamendç at page No. 81. Amend: To change or modify for the better; to alter by modification, deletion or addition. Mr. Chairman, just below

19 that is amendment of judgment. A judgment may be altered or amendedÉ.. Mr. Chairman: How they change the definition also, this is so surprising. In the 5 th edition, the definition is so different. I will just read it out to you. Amendments: åTo improve, to change for the better by removing defects or faultsç. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I would rely on the one that I have. Mr. Chairman: I am saying how they keep on changing? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I would read this again. To change or modify for the better; to alter by modification, deletion or addition and just below that is amendment of judgment: A judgment may be altered or amended for appropriate reasons on motion if served within 10 days of the entry of a judgment. Mr. Chairman, lastly I would take you to the word årevisionç at page No.1321. Revision: A re-examination or careful reading over for correction or improvement. Now, Mr. Chairman, I would just pause here for a second and I would ask you kindly to keep in mind these definitions that I have read out before you which are present in Blackãs Law Dictionary. Keeping these in your mind, I concede to the fact that there is no explicit provision provided in the rules that the Chairman can recall or revisit or amend his decision but I would now take refuge Mr. Chairman and request you to look at rule 237 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the Senate, which are your inherent powers. åAll matters not specifically provided for in these Rules and all questions relating to the detailed working of these rules shall be regulated in such manner as the Chairman may, from time to time, directç.

20 I am laying reliance on the meanings of these words as read with your inherent powers under 236 and corresponding provision provided under rule 29 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the National Assembly, where also the Speaker has the inherent powers to go into questions which are not specifically provided for in the rules. Mr. Chairman, next, I would like you to bear in mind that there is a basic standing principle and I need not to go into great details on that because you yourself are a very competent jurist and a very competent lawyer, the basic principle is that the authority that makes an order has the power to review, recall, revise, revision or amend that order. Mr. Chairman, in that you are well aware and you have pointed it out when I started the arguments in the beginning of Section-21 of the General Clauses Act. The General Clauses Act, Section-21 is further backed up and I would lay reliance in terms of case law on 2000 C.L.C, page 1535, I am not reading out these because you are well aware of these and it would be just consuming time of this House, 2000 C.L.C at page 1535, No.2, 2000 C.L.C at page 443, No.3, P.L.D 1991, Lahore at page 230, No.4, P.L.D 1969 Supreme Court at page 407 and next, P.L.J 1983 Lahore at page 1995, next 2002 P.L.C at page 696. Mr. Chairman, I would pause here and say that in most of these judgments with exception of one and why I am saying this that I would try to be as fair as possible. It is said that the power to amend or recall an order rests with the authority provided it has not been made public and a right has not accrued to the other side. Mr. Chairman, now I would most humbly submit that this, in the presence circumstances of the Parliament, is distinguishable. How is it distinguishable because in law there is a consequent

21 remedy which is available in case an order has come and it is a final order, you can go into appeal either before the Supreme Court or the High Court or you can go into an intra court appeal, nonetheless, remedy is available but in terms of Parliament, in terms of the ruling of the Chair, there is no remedy which is available in case the Chair has passed an order and the Chair itself comes to the conclusion that the order has been passed either arraying in law or on a concealment of certain facts which were not before the Chair at that time. Therefore, there is no remedy available because Article 89 of the Constitution prevents a member from going to a court of law because the internal proceedings of the Parliament cannot be taken to a court of law and I would be the last person to support such a proposition that the internal proceedings of Parliament should be taken to court. As I have said that there is no appeal which is available under the rules, therefore, the Chairman has to use his discretion. I would say that the discretion would be based on three issues which he would keep in mind while looking at facts, whether he should go into the ruling which has been given and point No.1 before him would be error patent on the record. No.2 would be disclosures of new facts, No.3 would be important questions of law as this will also create a new precedent. So, therefore, if or any one of these three, it comes to conclusion that there is a certain amount of lacuna which is left in the ruling, therefore, according to me the Chair would use its discretion and would reopen the matter as has been done in this case. Mr. Chairman, further you would also bear in mind that it is within the competence of the Upper House, if a house passes a resolution, this concept is not alien what I am trying to show to you Mr. Chairman, is that this concept is not alien to parliamentary

22 practice, if a House passes a resolution or passes an order, it is within the competence of the House to resend that resolution or to recall its order. So, if you place these in juxtaposition, if the House has the power then the discretion also rests with the Chairman and now Mr. Chairman, I would like to take you to Kaul and I would read to youÉ Mr. Chairman: Mian sahib , when you are discussing Section 21 of the General Clauses Act, what have you to say with regard to the principles of locus paenitentiae? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I have just addressed that issue with you. Mr. Chairman: Does it come into way or not, the principles of locus paenitentiae? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, that is why I, at very outset after having referred to Section 21, submitted before you that these judgments carry this that the order can be recalled or amended prior to it being announced or it is creating a right. Therefore, I said that this is distinguishable in terms of Parliament and the court of law because in a court of law there is an alternative remedy which is available against that order but in terms of Parliament that remedy is not available because there is no provision under the rules which allows a member to ask for an amendment or recalling the order of the Chairman, No.1. No.2, there is a power of Article 69 that the proceedings of Parliament will not be taken to court and as I said that I would be the last person to support such a proposition that the internal proceedings be taken to the court. Therefore, I have said that practice shows and I am going to read to you from Kaul that practice shows that at times the Chair has used its discretion and I have said that, that

23 discretion can be based on three facts. No.1 that there is an error patent on the recordÉ Mr. Chairman: That is the principle of Civil Procedure Code also as far as the review is concerned, discovery of new documents and the error patent on the face of record. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes, sir. Sir that is right what I have said. Sir, error patent on disclosure of these factsÉ Mr. Chairman: This is Order 38 CPC Award, review B B PQ Section 114 but substantive section KO : N9OjE : ´g O mA ˚Lei : order :9k] X:9:V D I do recall.:Lei Order-38 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: I think itãs 38 and important questions of law is that it will create a new precedent and then I had also placed before the honourable Chairman, the fact that the House, if you want to place in juxtaposition, the Chairman and the House, the House has also the power to resend a resolution or an order that it has passedÉ.. Mr. Chairman: What is Kaul saying? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Now I will come to Kaul sir, and first I would take you to page 120 and this is 5 th Edition, I hope you have the 5 th Edition. Is the book with you Mr. Chairman? Mr. Chairman: One minute please. Yes please. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, it says; the ruling of the Speaker and if you will bear with me. åIt is the right of the Speaker to interpret the Constitution and rules, so far as matters in or relating to the House are concerned, and no one, including the Government, can enter into any argument or controversy with the Speaker over such interpretation.

24 His ruling constitutes precedents by which subsequent speakers, members and officers are guided. Such precedents are collected and in the course of time, formulated as rules of procedure or followed as conventions. The Speakerãs ruling, as already stated cannot be questioned except on a substantive motion and motion is defined in our rules. A member who protests against the ruling of the Speaker commits contempt of this House and the Speaker. The Speakerãs decision is equally binding whether given in the House or on a departmental file. He is not bound to give reasons for his decisions. Members cannot criticize directly or indirectly inside or outside the House, any ruling given, opinion expressed or statement made by the Speakerç. Now Mr. Chairman, the relevant part is: åIf a member desires to make a submission to the Speaker on the floor of the House regarding a ruling, the Speaker may permit the member to do so after satisfying himself that it does not unduly interfere with the proceedings of the House. The member making such a submission cannot criticize the decision but can seek elucidation on any point, or request the Chair to consider the ruling in the light of the facts submitted by himç. Now Mr. Chairman, I would take you to page 122. Am I with you Mr. Chairman? Mr. Chairman: Just a minute, I am noting something.

25 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I will give you this as well also. Mr. Chairman: I have quoted it. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: No, no, I will give all of this. I have made a copy for you also. Mr. Chairman: I know, but I have got to make my own notes. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Right sir. Mr. Chairman: Please carry on. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I take you to page 122, the first paragraph, second line: åThe Speaker is empowered under the rules to correct patent errors in a Bill after it has been passed by the House and to make such other changes in the Bill consequential on the amendments accepted by the House. When a Bill is passed by the Parliament and is in possession of the Houseç. We can escape that and come to the next para. åAll matters not specifically provided for in the rules and all questions relating to the detailed working of the rules are regulated in such manner as the Speaker, from time to time, directs. As already stated, these directions are complied and publishedç. Then we can move on to the next. Mr. Chairman: Which is the relevant portion you want to refer?

26 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, the relevant portion is that åthe Speaker is empowered under the rules to make correctionsç and then the third paragraph: åThe Speaker is the head of the Secretariat which functionsç. Sir, the relevant part is pertaining to the errors that can be corrected in a Bill. And then Mr. Chairman, I need not go into the question of how important. The ruling of the Speaker is at page 123 but I would then take you straightaway to page 946. Mr. Chairman: Yes. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: The heading is åResiduary and Inherent Powers of the Speakerç. Mr. Chairman: Is it parametric to rule 237 of our rules? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Almost sir, but I would lay reliance on the second para Mr. Chairman. The second para is: åThe Speaker has also certain inherent powers. As stated above, under his inherent powers, the Speaker made observations, from time to time, regarding the presence of Ministers in the House and as a result thereof certain conventions have developed. Under his inherent powers the Speaker may, in certain special cases, allow motions to be moved or withdrawn which are not covered by the Rules of Procedure, may order expunction of words from the proceedings of the House on any ground not provided for in the rule relating to expunction, and may revise or correct a decisionç. Mr. Chairman, this is the important part åand may revise or correct a decision given by him earlierç.

27 Mr. Chairman, as far as the first contention was concerned, this is what I had to submit before you. I would now very quickly move on to the second contention and which is; whether rule 2 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the Senate, 1988, pertaining to the Leader of the Opposition envisages a process of election. Mr. Chairman, I would very quickly, you read it at noisome but I would take you to rule 2, in particular to the rule relating to the Leader of the Opposition and it says: åThe Leader of the Opposition means a member of a House, who in the opinion of the Chairman of the Senate is for the time being the leader of the members in Opposition to the Government in that Houseç. Now, Mr. Chairman, according to me the word åopinionç is very clear that what does that envisage but perhaps where the question arises, where certain amount of doubt arises is, on the wording is for the time being, the Leader of the members in Opposition to the Government in that House. Now the point is, that how does he determine as to who commands the majority. It is unfortunate that the rules are silent in such a case and the Chair can only rely on parliamentary precedents to which I will refer to a little later but according to me Mr. Chairman, that tenor of rule 2 is äascertainmentã. I distinguish between election and ascertainment. According to me it is ascertainment, the tenor of rule 2 is ascertainment. Let us see what makes up an election process and election process is made up of an electoralÉ. Mr. Chairman: Are you trying to distinguish between ascertainment and election?

28 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes sir, this is what I am saying that there is a distinction between ascertainment and there is a distinction between the term election. Mr. Chairman: According to you the rule 2 envisages, ascertainment and not election, your line of argument. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: According to my understanding the tenor of rule 2 is ascertainment and not election. Mr. Chairman: If there is no election, it means there is no voting? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That means there is no voting, thatãs right sir. I would like you to bear in mind three words; elect, electoral process or college and the word ascertainment. I would once again sir; refer you to Blackãs Law Dictionary, 6 th Edition. I am sorry we would be again at odds on the Edition and I would first of all take you to the term äelectã which is at page in my Edition 519. Itãs at the bottom of the page sir, of 519 in column 2. åA duly qualified voter one who has a vote in the choice of an officer, a constituent one who elects or has the right of choice or who has the right to vote for any functionary or for the adoption of any measure, in a narrower sense one who has the general right to vote and the right to vote for public officers. One authorized to exercise the elective franchiseç and then it goes on. Then I would take you Mr. Chairman, to page 520 and if you look in the book that you have, just after this you have the electoral college.

29 B B B O•7 R ‹‹U •Š R U B :LÉb :L V :Elector dKOP• :9ä 2v7 :L] :fx@:XvV :M@:dL • P š’ `O :¾2 v 7 :fx@:o v }4 :X V :M@::KB OPQ gmjO vE :f94 j4E }R One of the persons chosen to comprise these electoral dLei :o4 :1O C do45 :dLei :electoral college :f@:4 colleges Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes sir, and now we come to the electoral college. The college or body of electors of a state chosen to elect the President and Vice President also, the whole body of such electors composed of the electoral colleges of the several states, and then Mr. Chairman, under that electoral process generic term for method by which persons are elected to public office voting. Then I would take you to the word åascertainmentç and åascertainmentç in my book is at page 114. Sir, this is; Ascertain: To fix to render certain or definite; to estimate and determine; to estimate and determine; to clear of doubt or obscurity; to ensure as a certainty; to find out by investigation. Now, I would be laying reliance to estimate and determine and to find out by investigation. Now, Mr. Chairman, keeping this meaning of äascertainmentã in mind and also keeping the meaning of the elector and the electoral process in the electoral college. Now, when you read this meaning of äascertainmentã with the word åopinionç in rule 2, I think the matter becomes clear, because the word äopinionã again in Blackãs Law Dictionary at page 1092 synchs with this meaning. Now here Mr. Chairman, I would like to pause for a moment and draw your attention to another issue which is linked with this. Mr. Chairman: Letãs read the definition of the word äopinionã. It is very interesting. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: äOpinionã Mr. Chairman.

30 Mr. Chairman: Very interesting definition. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes sir. Would you like me to read this. Mr. Chairman: Yes please do that. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: åA document prepared by an attorney for his client embodying his understanding of the Law and as applicable to a state of facts submitted to him for that purpose. Example, an opinion of an attorney as to marketability of land title as determined from a review of the abstract of title and other public records. The statement of a judge or court of the decision reached, in regard to a cause, trial or argued before them. Expounding the law as applied to the case and detailing the reasons upon which the judgment is basedç. And then it goes on to explain the various types of judgments that are.É.. Mr. Chairman: We will have to keep in view the Article that has been published today with the definition of the word äopinionã, whatever the sense of the House will be tomorrow. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is right sir. After having said that Mr. Chairman, and where I had asked to pause and this is where I have differed with some of my colleagues that the word äopinionã is not interchangeable with the word discretion because what has been done during the course of the arguments is that the word äopinionã has been made interchangeable with the word ädiscretionã and therefore, I would say that it is not interchangeable because I would take you to page 466 of Blackãs Law Dictionary again. U B ˚Ll :KO7 2V :rely :fx@:2v v7 :;V ::pages are different.:LV :M@::KB OPQ gmjO vE :f94 j4E

31 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, Blackãs Law Dictionary page 466 on the word ädiscretionã. U 6 U B I donãt have the sixth edition with Lš•7 9j47 : Word :KB OPQ gmjO vE :f94 j4E me. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sorry sir, the word is ädiscretionã and the meaning is when applies to public functionaries, ädiscretionã means a power or right conferred upon them by law or acting officially in certain circumstances according to the dictates of their judgment and conscience uncontrolled by the judgment or conscience of others as applied to public offices, correlates action taken in light of reasons as applied to all facts and with view to rights of all parties to actions while having regard for what is right and equitable under all circumstances and law. Now Mr. Chairman, even if we were to say; a) I donãt conceive that it is interchangeable. (b) In the alternative, even if we were to say that yes, it is the discretion of the Chair, although I have tried to show to the honourable Chairman that, that is not the case but in the alternative, even if we were to say that ädiscretion and opinionã are interchangeable then my contention would be that discretion canãt be arbitrary, it canãt be capricious or it canãt be unrestrained; it has to be bounded between rules and within the law and for this Mr. Chairman, I would like to draw your attention, I am sure you are already aware of it, but I would like to draw your attention to SCMR 2010. The citation is at page 301 the relevant head note is at page...... Mr. Chairman: This 2000 SCMR...... Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, SCMR 2001, this is a judgment of my lord honourable Chief Justice, Iftikhar Muhammad

32 Chaudhry, Ch. Ejaz Ahmed and my lord Ghulam Rabbani. The citation is at page 1301, the relevant head note äBã is at page 1302, the relevant portion of the judgment is at 1301 and 1339. Mr. Chairman: This case law is very clear as to that. I just want to ask about this thing, is this your line of argument that the åopinionç and ådiscretionç are the same or they are two different things? I know how the discretion has to be exercised; the case law is very clear as to that. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, my line of argument is, as I have stated earlier, that I believe it is not interchangeable. As has been done, the words åopinionç and ådiscretionç are not interchangeable. They are two different entities according to me in terms of rule 2, pertaining to the Leader of the Opposition; that is No.1. No.2, in the alternative, if the honourable Chairman was to come to the conclusion that the term åopinionç and the term ådiscretionç are interchangeable, then my argument is that if that be so, then discretion cannot be exercised arbitrarily, capriciously or without restraint. It has to be within the confines of law and the rules. Mr. Chairman: åDiscretion has to be exercised judiciallyç, in few words that is what the dictum of the superior court is. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is right. That is very correct sir. Thank you for correcting me, I am grateful. In that respect Mr. Chairman, I have cited to you 2010-SCMR and also 1995-SCMR at page 650, the relevant portion being at page 657 and 659. Now, Mr. Chairman, after having said that very quickly, the next source before you is precedents. Now, what are the

33 precedents in respect of appointment of the Leader of the Opposition in our own Parliament? No.1, if we would very quickly go on to the National Assembly first of all, from 7-7-1955 to 2-3- 1969, the National Assembly saw four Leaders of the Opposition, Mr. Hussain Shaheed Suhrawardy, Mr. I.I. Chundrigar, Sardar Bahadar Khan and Mr. Noor-ul-Amin. Unfortunately, there is no record available with the National Assembly because they say that this record was burnt at the time of the creation of Bangladesh. Then Mr. Chairman, we move on to 1973. In 1973, there was no provision in the Rules of Procedure of the National Assembly or in the Constitution of 1973 for the appointment of the Leader of the Opposition but due to the definition provided in Section 2(f) which has already been referred to, of the Members of Parliament (Salaries and Allowances) Act, 1974, the right honourable Mr. Abdul Wali Khan, was appointed as Leader of the Opposition, on the basis of a letter. There were no signatures, nothing attached, it was on the basis of a letter. Subsequently, when he was arrested, an application was made with no signatures attached, and on the basis of that application, Maulana Mufti Mahmood sahib was appointed as the Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly. Mr. Chairman: Those were the good days. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Those were the good days. In 1985, a controversy arose to the effect that the House had been elected on a non-party basis; you would recall Mr. Chairman, and whether a parliamentary group representing the Opposition could be formed in such a House which had been elected on a non-partisan base. This discussion continued within the Secretariat of the National Assembly. It was referred to the Ministry of Law.

34 There is no record showing that the Ministry of Law responded on this question. The record does show that the National Assembly Secretariat held that yes, for the efficient functioning of the National Assembly, it is desirable that there be a treasury benches and there be an opposition benches and as a consequence of that, Haji Muhammad Saifullah Khan and subsequently, the right honourable Syed Fakhar Imam sahib became Leaders of the Opposition in the National Assembly from 1985 to 1988. The definition of the Leader of the Opposition was first introduced in the Rules of Procedure of the National Assembly in 1992 which is the same as it prevails today. As a consequence of this, Mohtarma from 1990 to 1993, Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif sahib from 1993 to 1996, and again Mohtarma from 1997 to 1999 became Leaders of the Opposition. Mr. Chairman, again, it was merely a letter, there were no signatures attached and it was stated that they command the majority of the members sitting in the Opposition. I didnãt want to raise this question but since it was raised yesterday, I will have to go into a little bit of detail. In 2004, during the period of General Musharraf, the ARD made an application that it commands the majority of the members in the Opposition and therefore, the Leader of the Opposition should be Muhammad Amin Faheem. Now you would recall, I have already pointed out to you that the rules have been framed with regard to the Leader of the Opposition, opinion of the Speaker who commands the majority. Then the Speaker applied but what happened was that the ARD gave their number, I donãt recall the number but I think it was 79. The MMA gave their number, I donãt recall the number but I confirmÉÉ. which was 68. I would request to you Mr. Chairman to kindly ask for the record from the National Assembly on this basis

35 because this was argued at great length on the question of a single party. So therefore, I would request you to get the record from the National Assembly because there is not ruling of the Speaker on this question. Mr. Chairman: The word åsingle partyç has only been used in Article 63A of the Constitution and not anywhere else. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is correct sir, butÉÉÉÉÉ. Mr. Chairman: So, have you got to look in the word åsingle partyç vis-…-vis the contents of Article 63A only or as a general? That is another point which is coming to my mind. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I will try and satisfy the honourable Chairman on that issue as well but since this issue by a number of colleagues of mine, has been raised that in the determinationÉÉ. Mr. Chairman: Another thing we should look into it B B B R R‹ R :@?Y:fx@:ov }4 :XV :Clause 2:sV :Article 63 (A) dKOPST :L] 2V :argument :o}4 :L] :€4 E 9¦ :?@Y:o } 4 @ ‹ you can kindly look into it, Article 63 (A) Clause 2.˘KOPä 2 v7 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Mr. Chairman, what was happened.

The 6 }R p6 } 4 R ˘o :oS ?:XSi :f94C :o @:?>@:honourable Speaker

36 so, I will be very careful in my words. The honourable Speaker changed the yardstick for determining the quantum of members with the Opposition and the yardstick that was applied was the election to the Office of the Prime Minister. It was said that because the PML (Q) candidate polled so many votes, Moulana Sahib I think was the candidate from the MMA side. He polled so many votes and the ARD candidate who was at that time I think Mr. Shah Mehmood Qureshi, polled votes less than Maulana Sahib, therefore, MMA is the majority party and they should be named as the Leader of the Opposition. Although, the official record showed that the ARD was larger in number. So, since I had no plans of going into this but since this had been argued and this had been stressed yesterday. Therefore, the record needed to be put straight and therefore, I have brought that to your notice. Then in 2008 an application was made by PML (Q) with signatures, this was for the first time that signatures are introduced and Ch. Pervaiz Elahi Sahib was made the Leader of the Opposition. In September, 2008 the PML (N) left the Treasury Benches and joined the Opposition and laid claim to the Leader of the Opposition alongwith signatures, but here Mr. Chairman, a situation arose and I would request you to bear this in mind because this will have relevance a little later, here a situation arose where there was no provision in the rules for the removal of the Leader of the Opposition, but I must give credit to Ch. Pervaiz Elahi very honourable, he said that since I do not have the majority, I resign and as a consequence Ch. Nisar was made the Leader of the Opposition and subsequently, the National Assembly has amended its rules and brought about rule 39, which now provides for the procedure for declaration of the Leader of the Opposition and his removal.

37 So, therefore, Mr. Chairman, I have shown this to you to show that as far as the precedents of the National Assembly are concernedÉ U B • B ( ( ~Y:st 9jy :g¹ê :÷”@Y@:KBBOPQ :”@XO] @:2v7 :é• X q :M@ ) Mr. Chairman: Please continue. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: So, therefore, there is nothing much in terms of precedents in the National Assembly on which you can rely. Mr. Chairman: That is your clarification. Please move further now. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, then we have the Senate. In the Senate also itãs a sorry state of affairs Khawaja Muhammad Safdar Sahib was the first Leader of the Opposition, he was from the Muslim League. There were only two members in the Opposition at that time and he was made Leader of the Opposition subsequently, Mr. Muhammad Hashim Gulzai and Mr. Yahyah Bakhtiar belonging to the PDA, they were made leaders of the Opposition, were nominated as Leaders of the Opposition and in both these cases the concept of a single majority party was not entertained as your record will show, but the Opposition as a group was taken into consideration. Sir, similarly, when I was nominated as the Leader of the Opposition with the considerable amount of delay, it was again the Opposition as an entire group which was considered and I was nominated. So, in terms of the Senate also there is really not that much that you can rely on. The third precedent on which we all lay some deal of reliance is the Indian experience and very quickly Mr. Chairman, I would like to take you to Page 142, 143, and 144 of Kaul.

38 Mr. Chairman: One minute, page 143, Leader of the Opposition. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes, page 142, 143 and 144. Mr. Chairman, very quickly I am aware that I had committed to you that I would not take too much time. therefore, I would not go and read this into great detail, but I would rely on these pages and I would say that the essence of this is that when we are talking in terms of a single majority party that has been the basic thrust. Two thrusts come from the Indian jurisdiction, one has been on the question of quorum and the other has been on the question of single party. Mr. Chairman, now as far as the Indian jurisdiction is concerned, I would say that yes, the broad principles of the Indian jurisdiction can be looked at and can be relied to an extent but the Indian functioning of Parliament is slightly different or to a great extent different to the functioning of Parliament in Pakistan. Mr. Chairman: Because they have got the 10 th Schedule and, I think, there are judgments of our court. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Absolutely correct sir. Sir, you would recallÉ. Mr. Chairman: The Indian authorities are persuasive but not binding. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is very correct, number one. No.2 Sir, in Kaul and in the Indian rules, it is provided and the Speaker had laid down a criterion for the recognition of political parties which is not present in Pakistan. No.2, apart from the rules, there are directives of the speaker which govern the procedure of Parliament in addition to the rules which are not prevalent in Pakistan and No.3, as very rightly

39 pointed by yourself that after the 10 th Schedule in the Constitution in India, it has become a totally different ball game and in fact in the 10 th Schedule it is also provided that the Parliament will maintain a register of the political parties in Parliament. Mr. Chairman: It talks about mergers also. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: It talks about merger; it talks about break away factions which are not in our Constitution. So, therefore, that is why I am saying that to the extent of broad principles, yes, anything more than that. Mr. Chairman: OK. Next point. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, next point is that when we come to the question of the single largest party, we have to bear two or three things in mind and that is the concept, from where the concept of the single largest party has been nominated as the Leader of the Opposition, from where this has germinated. This has germinated essentially from the House which elects the government. That is from the Lok Sabha or from the National Assembly because what is the concept or even in the United States, the House of Commons, the concept is that the Leader of the Opposition is the Prime Minister in waiting or the Leader of the Opposition is the shadow Prime Minister. Therefore, according to parliamentary traditions if the government falls, then the second largest party is the party which will be called upon to form the government, whether they have the number or not. Whether they cobble together a coalition or not but it shall be prerogative of the leader of that party, so that is where the idea of the largest opposition party has germinated from and therefore, I would say that it bears little relevance as far as we are concerned.

40 Secondly, Mr. Chairman, I would like to draw your attention to other fact, on this issue that we have been quoted a number of instances and a number of laws. Yes, but those statutes themselves have been providing for that the leader of the largest party will head the opposition whereas our rules and laws do not provide for that. If, at all we get a semblance of what is opposition, it is through rule 2 and what is rule 2 speaks of, it speaks of member, so therefore, that concept would not come into play. Thirdly, Mr. Chairman, I would like you to take into consideration also the fact that what is the intent. This is to be found in Kaul as well and it is to be found in May as well. Let me just read to you, Mr. Chairman, from May for what I have said substantiating that point that it is theÉ. Mr. Chairman: Even in the election of Prime Minister, the words äsingle largest partyã is not used. We will look into Article 91, Clause 4. The Prime Minister shall be elected by the votes of the majority of the total membership of the National Assembly. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is correct, sir. I was coming to that but the Chairman has already ÉÉ.. Mr. Chairman: I do not find the word äsingle partyã being used anywhere else. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: No sir, apart from 63(a), itãs not. Mr. Chairman: I hope I am correct as to that. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: I think you are sir. Sir, I would refer you to the 23 rd edition of May which is at page 247. Mr. Chairman: 23 rd Edition of May.

41 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Page 247, there are just 3 or 4 lines which are relevant and this is the official. Mr. Chairman: Page 247? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes, 247, the heading is åOfficial Oppositionç and in that I would read from the middle of the paragraph, åthe prevalence on the whole of the two parties system has usually obviated any uncertainty as to which party has right to be called the official opposition. It is the largest minority party which is prepared in the event of the resignation. Now, this is what I was pointing out to the honourable Chairman. In the event of the resignation of the government, to assume office, the Leader of the Opposition and some of his principal colleagues in both houses form of group popularly known as the shadow cabinet. So, that is from where this concept has essentially germinated. Mr. Chairman: But again, the word over here uses äthe partyã. Now the argument which are being used over here that in our rules the words which are used by our members, what is the distinction between the two? The party and the members. Members compose a party and party comprises members. Can we say that members are different from party? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I would most humbly submit that according to me the two cannot be divorced from one another. A member cannot be divorced from a political party on the basis of which he has been elected and a party cannot be divorced from the parliamentary party which is in the House and vice-versa. But I think, what has been kept in mind, in our rules and this is where I would seek the Chairmanãs indulgence, is that why the term ämemberã has been used? I may be wrong but this is my assumption. I would take you to the mode of election of the

42 Senate. The mode of election of the Senate is by a transferable vote. I would take the honorable Chairman further back, I would take the honourable Chairman to the stage of the framing of the 1973 Constitution. What was the purpose of a by-cameral legislature? The purpose of a by-cameral legislature was to give, (a): equal representation to the federating units through the Senate of Pakistan. (b) by proportionate transferable vote to bringÉ.. Mr. Chairman: Read Article 59, Clause-2 of the Constitution of Pakistan. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I am just getting there. åElection to filling the seats allocated to each province shall be held in accordance with the system of proportional representation by means of single transferable voteç. This is what I was referring to. Mr. Chairman: That is how the election takes place in the Senate. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is right, sir. That is what I was referring the honourable Chairman too and sir, as you will find in the debates, the purpose was to ensure that even the smallest shade of political opinion reflected in the provincial Assembly has an opportunity of coming to the Senate of Pakistan and being reflected over there. So, that was the purpose and therefore, the term ämemberã has been used according to me for the simple purpose that the Opposition should reflect a combination of all the members that are in Opposition and that it should not be restrictive to a particular party. So, it would be member comprising of the various parties that confer their confidence in a person to be their leader for the time being. I have already shown to you the honourable Chairman, that laws of England and foreign jurisdiction

43 have been referred to but those laws have provided for such a dispensation and our lawsÉ... Mr. Chairman: What is your next point, how long will you take? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I will try and go through it very quickly. It will take rather half an hour. Mr. Chairman: Now we should take a break. I am not stopping him from that. I am just trying to manage the time. ‹ B 6 7 P î :within half an hour conclude :Ly @:fx@:2v l @:dKO 2 V : break :z·4] :LV :L •™ :L ß Yx@:X:9] OC dKO7 2 V Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: I will do my best to conclude it in half an hour.

Sir, the next point is point No. 3. What constitutes the opposition members in the Senate of Pakistan, is it defined in the rules? if notÉÉ..

44 B P¶v[ PQ B U E B :2V :˘KO : you have already covered it.::KO :N9OjE :´gO mA ::KOPQ gmjO v :f94 j4E Please continue in your own way. I donãt want to hinder :dfx@:Kv OPµ your line of arguments. Please continue the way you wanted. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Right sir, thank you, very kind of you sir. I will just go through it as you have been very kind, obviously the Rules of Procedure donãt define an Opposition member, the rules define a member, means a member of the Senate. Rules further define a Minister or a member in charge; rules also define a private member means a member other than a Minister. Now, this means that private member means that the entire House, except those who are Ministers all are private members. Mr. Chairman, the point that I would like to make here now is that in parliamentary tradition whether it is India, whether it is the National Assembly or whether it is the UK, basically the House is divided into 2 or 3 benches. Sir, my point is that basically the House is divided into 2 or 3 benches, the first bench is the treasury bench, which constitutes those members who are part of the majority party that has formed the Government and includes those allied parties or independent or unattached members who declare their affiliation or a part of the ruling coalition. No.2, the Opposition benches; comprising of those parties or independent or unattached members who declare themselves to be in opposition to the Government in that House and the third bench is the independent bench; or the independent benches or as known in the House of Lords as the Cross benchers. The Cross benchers in the House of Lords or the independent benches are those unattached members who are neither part of the treasury, nor a part of the Opposition but vote on a case to case basis, now my contention here is and I would refer you again to äPractice and

45 Procedureã by Kaul, page 372 and 376 which substantiates my point but in order to save time I would just lay reliance on this and I would ask the honourable Chairman, to do the reading in chamber otherwise I can read theÉ.. Mr. Chairman: Donãt worry, I will go through it. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Right. So, therefore, I would move on from that sir, and I would then say that the independent members have the right to vote and they vote on case to case basis but as far as the privileges and facilities and certain dispensations that are connected with or related to the treasury benches or the Opposition benches, they cannot avail those. Yes, if it is a group of independent members who have constituted themselves and have elected one person then in terms of the business of the Senate and the business of the Senate as defined in the rules to that extent, the Chair can take them into confidence and can consult them, can appoint them into the Standing Committees, can make them Chairmen but where the internal functioning of privileges of either of the two benches come into question, they would not be allowed to play a role. So, this is the distinction that I would place before the honourable Chair and I would also place pages 355, 357, 358, 359 and 360 of Kaul, 5 th Edition for the consideration of the Chair. Mr. Chairman: So, your line of argument is that the independents do not have a right to vote for the Leader of the Opposition. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is correct. Mr. Chairman: Irrespective of the fact that they have been elected in a province or from the Federally Administered Tribal Area.

46 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: I will come to FATA separately but yes that is it. Mr. Chairman: For both of them this is your line of argument. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, that is my line of argument. Sir, you hit the nail on the head Mr. Chairman, and what would be the criterion Mr. ChairmanÉÉ Mr. Chairman: I am also learning from all of you. This is a process. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is kind of you to say so sir. Sir what would be the criterion according to me the criterion would be (a) the declaration of intent by the party or the individual member to be in Opposition or the Government and (b) a consistent patron of Opposition to the Government but would not include those members sitting on independent benches and supporting the Government or the Opposition on a case to case basis. B bc 6 B U E B :dLei :9Y:1OC •^ ::L a ` L ] :fx@:X:=>:v ] :KOPQ gmjO v :f94 j4E Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, now we come to issue No. 4 and that is whether members of a single political party belonging to its parliamentary party in the Senate can claim rights, facilities and privileges other than its parliamentary party. Mr. Chairman, in the normal course we are confronted with a very strange situation according to me because in the normal course the question would arise that if a member of a House has been elected as such as the candidate and nominee of a political party or having been elected as such otherwise that as an independent and having become a member of that political party after that election defects

47 or withdraws himself from the political party, that is normally the question which the Houses are confronted with. He is, liable; obviously, to defection under Article 63(A) but in the instant case the situation is different. In the instant case it is an admitted fact that the head of the party is not disputed. Hence to that extent his title is established. Further, it is an admitted fact that the members continue to be a part and parcel of their original party. Now the question arises that due to internal differences on policy issues, they seek to be seated on different seats from their parent party. According to me, Mr. chairman, and I may be wrong and with due respect to my friends, this is prima facie an intra-party dispute and this intra-party dispute needs to be resolved by the party leader by either acquiescing to the demands of his dissidents or taking disciplinary action against them. So it is essentially an intra-party question because they continue to claim that they are members of their original party but because of policy differences they want to sit on the other side and I am of the opinion and my opinion may be wrong, but I am of the opinion that it is not within the competence of the Chair to determine their status because Clause 2 which you have referred to of Article 63(A) lays down the conditions for him to be a member of that parliamentary party, which the honourable Chairman had already referred to while I was arguing earlier and I said I would refer to it later and I am laying reliance on that now. While Clause 1 of 63 (A) lays down the conditions under which disciplinary action against him can be initiated and while Clause 3 of Article 63(A) lays down the manner, procedure and the authority and in that the authority is the Chief Election Commissioner. So it is not within the competence of the Chair and I think honourable Chairman is well aware of PLD 1994, Supreme Court, Pir Sabir Shahãs case at page 739, the relevant portion being at page 781.

49 parliamentary party in the Houseç. Now, second Clause is different now, åor having been electedç. Now this is a situation which arises after election. åOr having been elected otherwise then as a candidate or nominee of a political party has become a member of such parliamentary party after such elections by means of a declaration in writing.ç Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Mr. Chairman, as you have very rightly said that this envisages two situations. Mr. Chairman: Two situations, yes. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: It envisages situation (a), where I am elected on the basis of being a member of and I fight the elections on the symbol of the Pakistan Peoples Party. I, at the time of submission of my nomination papers, give a certificate of the ticket that has been issued to me and on the basis of that certificate the symbol of the Pakistan Peoples Party is allotted to me. This is condition No.1. Mr. Chairman: One, before election. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Before election and the other is where a member who is an independent. Mr. Chairman: One is before election, the other is after election. I am trying to make it concise. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: That is correct, sir. Where you are elected as an independent presumably and then join a political party and that is where the declaration in writing comes in forth because in terms of the earlier one prior to election that has already been submitted. ‹ R U E B dLei :†O ja :KB OPQ gmjO v :f94 j4E

50 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, I was giving you the citation on Pir Sabir Shah which was PLD 1994 page. Mr. Chairman: Sabir Shah case is very famous case. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: And the relevant portion is at 781. 6 B R G Ê H PQ B P U E B dLa :€94 E ¦ :=9 „ :o{ :Y94 ’ :author :LV :M@::KO :N9OjE :´gO mA ::KO Q gmjO v :f94 j4E Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes sir. Now, sir, I come to point No. 5. Whether the members belonging to FATA have a status different to the other members of the Senate, because this was very vehemently argued by very senior council, that the status of the members of FATA is different to those of the other members in the House and therefore, as a consequence they have to be treated differently and they have rights which are different to the other members of the House. While we are talking about FATA, I would request the Chair to kindly keep in mind my arguments vis- …-vis the three benches in the House and then we would proceed with FATA. Mr. Chairman, while we are talking of FATA, again I am relying on the Constitution prior to the 18 th Amendment, all these citations that I have given you of the Constitution are prior to the 18 th Amendment. I would take you, Mr. Chairman, to Article 1 of the Constitution and Article 1 of the Constitution is that åPakistan shall be Federal Republic to be known as the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, hereinafter referred to as Pakistanç. Clause 2; åthe territories of Pakistan shall comprise; (a) The provinces of Balochistan, The North West Frontier, The Punjab and ; (b) The Islamabad Capital Territory, hereinafter referred to as the Federal Capital; (c) The Federally Administered Tribal Areas; and

51 (d) Such States and territories as are or may be included in Pakistan, whether by accession or otherwiseç. So Para C of Clause 2 of Article 1 shows FATA to be a territory within the confines of Pakistan. Now, Mr. Chairman, very quickly, FATA is governed, as you are well aware because you have been dealing with the amendments in FATA and therefore, you are well aware of that FATA is governed by Articles 246 and 247 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Mr. Chairman, Article 246, as you are aware, defines the territories that constitute FATA and Article 247 deals with the administration of the tribal areas and it states that it isÉ.., I will not read those Articles because I do not think you need for me to read them as we are running short of time as well. Now, Mr. Chairman, after having said that, I would like to take you to Para (B) of Clause 1 of Article 59. Again I do not have to read that, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman: I am aware of it. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: It has been read so many times and you are aware of it. It states that the elections of the members from FATA will be made in such manner as the President may prescribe by an order. Now, Mr. Chairman, after having said that, I would also, because of the argument which is being advanced, I would also like you to bear in mind that Para (C) of the same Article when it deals with the Federal Capital Area also says that their mode of election is to be prescribed by the President as well and I stop here. It is not only FATA. So, if it is being argued that FATA acquires a special status because the President prescribes their mode of election and that their electoral

52 college is different, that is, it is not a provincial assembly and it is members of the FATA from the National Assembly then conversely if you look at it, Clause, (C) provides that for the Federal Capital Area also. The President will prescribe by way of an order and in which their electoral college is also different. Their electoral college is the National Assembly as well. Then by way of an inference to their arguments, am I to believe that the members elected form the Federal Capital Area would also enjoy a separate status. Now, Mr. Chairman, what would be the situation? If this line of argument is taken further it would mean that there are three sets of members in the House with different privileges and qualifications. One are those senators which are elected by the provincial assemblies, the other are those senators which are elected from FATA because of the manner in which they are elected and it is prescribed by the President and the third would be the set of senators form the Federal Capital Area because their electoral college is different as well and their mode of election also has been prescribed by the President by way of an order. So what would happen to Article 25. Three sets of members having different privileges in a House. Mr. Chairman, that is not what the Constitution envisaged. Now Mr. Chairman, with due respect it is being argued or it was argued again by a senior counsel that the Political Parties Act does not apply and because the Political Parties Act does not apply and the other laws of Pakistan do not apply, therefore, FATA has a status onto itself. FATA is alien to the territory of Pakistan that is not the position, Mr. Chairman. Let me take you to the order itself of the President which is in PLD 2003, supplement I, Part I, Federal Statute, Page 948. If the Chairman will permit me, it is not a very long order but it is relevant. Sir, it is Chief Executiveãs Order

53 40 of 2002, Senate Election of Members from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas, Order 2002. An order to prescribe the manner in which the members of the Senate from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas shall be elected, Gazette of Pakistan extraordinary, Part I, 21 st November, 2002, number so and so, dated 20-11-2002. The following order promulgated by the Chief Executive is hereby published for general information. Whereas it is expedient to prescribe the manner in which the members of the Senate from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas shall be elected and to provide for matters connected therewith an ancillary thereto. Now, therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph (b) of Clause 1 of Article 8(b) of the conduct of General Elections Order 2002, Chief Executiveäs Order 7 of 2002 and all powers enabling him in that behalf, the President is pleased to make the following order: No.1: Short Title and Commencement. This order may be called the Senate election of members from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas Order 2002. It shall come into force at once. Now, Mr. Chairman, No.2; Manner of election of the members of the Senate from Federally Administered Tribal Areas and application of Act 51 of 1975 and the rules made thereunder. What is Act 51? Act 51 is the Senate Election Act of 1975. There elections are held by way of this Order under the Senate Election Act of 1975 and I will read this further. åMembers of the Senate from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas shall be elected by the members from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas in the National Assembly in the same manner as members to fill seats in Senate allocated to a province or elected by members of the provincial assembly and the Senate Election Act, 1975 and the rules made thereunder read with notification bearing SRO No.746

54 (1/75) dated: 7 th July, 1975 and SRO No. 747 (1/75) dated: 7 th July, 1975 shall apply for the purpose subject to the modifications in the said Act. Then it modified. It says; where the provincial isÉ.., it is the National Assembly, whereas the members are given; it is FATA but to that extent only. So, to say that simply because the Political Parties Act is not applicable but their election is subject to the Senate Election Act of 1975 and that is applicable to you and me also when we get elected. When we get elected, it is under the Senate Election Act of 1975. The oath that he subscribes to in the form which is again the same form which you and me fill in, with only the difference that in place of the name of the province is the Federally Administered Tribal Areas. He affirmed that he is subject to the qualifications and disqualifications under Article 62 and 63 of the Constitution. Like you and me, Mr. Chairman, he submits his assets, like you and me; he gives an undertaking that he has not taken a loan over X amount of rupees. Mr. Chairman: Please, look at Clause 3 of Article 247 and Clause 7 of Article 247 of the Constitution of Pakistan, in juxtaposition. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: I will be with you in a just moment sir. Yes, Clause 3; åNo Act of Majlis-e-Shoora (Parliament) shall apply to any Federally Administered Tribal Areas or to any part thereof, unless the President so directs, and no Act of Majlis-e-Shoora (Parliament) or a provincial assembly shall apply to a Provincially Administered Tribal Areas, or to any part thereof, unless the Governor of the Province in which the Tribal Area is situated, with the approval of the President, so directs; and in giving such a direction with respect to any law, the President or, as the case may be, the Governor, may direct that the law shall, in its

55 application to a Tribal Area, or to a specified part thereof, have effect subject to such exceptions and modifications as may be specified in the direction.ç Mr. Chairman: This is a negative clause. Now read Clause 7. This is also a negative Clause. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: it is; åneither the Supreme Court nor a High Court shall exercise any jurisdiction under the Constitution in relation to a Tribal Area, unless Majlis-e- Shoora (Parliament) by law otherwise provides: Provided that nothing in this Clause shall affect the jurisdiction which the Supreme Court or a High Court exercised in relation to a Tribal Area immediately before the commencing day.ç Mr. Chairman: Is it correct to argue that only those Acts become applicable on the Federally Administered Tribal Areas which are specifically provided for in the light of Article 3 and 7 of the Constitution? I just want to make it clear. Letãs proceed further now. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes sir, that is absolutely correct. Sir, further his election is also conducted by the Chief Election Commissioner admittedly. Mr. Chairman: See this, what is it? Have the framers of the Constitution kept into mind only the Acts which are passed, endorsed by the President or the Governor, become applicable and not other acts? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Agreed sir. I am not a chameleon in that and that is why I read to you the Presidentãs Order by virtue of which the Senate Election Act is applicable. Mr. Chairman: Letãs proceed further.

56 Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: What I am trying to say is that the argument being advanced that simply because the Political Parties Act is not applicable, therefore, an entity onto them is not correct. Now Mr. Chairman, I would come to the Political Parties Order or Act as well. What does the political parties Order or Act entails? Essentially it deals with the functioning, organization, membership, funding, certification intra party elections and dissolution of political parties. This is what the total intent of the Political Parties Act or Order is. Yes, to the extent that it is not applicable in FATA. He cannot contest an election as a member of a political party. Stop here for a moment Mr. Chairman. Once he is elected where does the order specify or where does the law state that he will be disqualified if he becomes a member of a political party. Mr. Chairman: Can he join any political party? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Yes. Mr. Chairman: He can. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: You have got example across the floor or across the Hall. Mr. Chattan is a member of the Pakistan Peoples Party and he is from FATA. There is no explicit disqualification. Mr. Chairman: There is no question of disqualification. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: There is no explicit bar. The bar remainsÉ Mr. Chairman: Now he becomes a member of political party which is not registered in FATA. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, you are well aware because you were part of the process of drafting of those

57 amendments. In actual fact, the de facto position is that all political parties are functioning in FATA whether we admit it or we donãt. But there is this fa–ade, that the Political Parties Order and the Political Parties Act is not applicable. So therefore, to that extent when he files his nomination papers, he files as an independent candidate but otherwise the ANP is there, the JUI is there, the PPP is there. This is a reality. Mr. Chairman: Right, what is the next point now? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, if you just allow me a little more Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman: OK. I think after we finish on issue No.5, we will adjourn for sometime and then come back. Now how long will you take? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, after that I will not take very long, fifteen to twenty minutes not more than that sir. In this respect finally on this point Mr. Chairman, I think you have understood what the point that I am trying to make clear that he has no different status and that he is like any other member and secondly if a status different to him is conferred, it would be against the spirit of the law and the Constitution and also Article 25. Finally, on this issue Mr. Chairman, I would like to refer to you PLD 1995, Supreme Court at Page 281; the relevant head note is at page 283. Mr. Chairman: What is head note number? Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Sir, the head note number is ådç, Constitution of Pakistan, Article 7 and 247, state definition.

58 Definition of a State as given in Article 7 of the Constitution is fairly wide and encompasses all authorities which perform executive and legislative functions in any part of the country. President and Governor while exercising their powers under Article 247 of the Constitution therefore, cannot be excluded from the definition of the State so far as the Tribal Areas are concerned and this is the relevant portion at page 297. Sir, the 6 th point was, whether after the creation of a vacancy, the criterion on which the Chairman Senate of Pakistan has to form an opinion be changed and I think if we were to include in this the 7 th point. Sir, according to me it would be appropriate that once a vacancy has occurred, the criterion for the ascertainment, as I have tried to show to yourself, should not be changed and those members who were sitting on the opposition benches at the time when the vacancy occurred should be the members that are considered. In this regard, I would say that this principle of non changing of the ground realities has been upheld in Article 58 of the Constitution wherein it is stated that once a resolution for a vote of no confidence against the Prime Minister or in the other Article, against a Chief Minister has been moved, he shall not advise the President for its dissolution till such time as the Assembly has not voted upon it. Further, Mr. Chairman, I would like to draw your attention to the Electoral Rolls Act 1974, and I would take you sir, straightaway to Section 20, which states that no correction to be made after constituency called upon to elect. No revision or collection of any electoral roll for any electoral area shall be made nor shall any order under Section 19 be made in respect of any electoral roll at any time after the constituency of which such electoral area forms part has been called upon to elect its representatives and before such representatives have been electedç.

59 So this principle of non changing of the ground realities after vacancy has occurred is upheld through Section 20 of the Electoral Rolls Act 1974. Mr. Chairman, very quickly coming to the question of when the vacancy occurred, in my humble opinion, in the instant case it would not according to me occur from the date the honourable Senator tendered his resignation. According to me the vacancy occurred in the office of the Leader of the Opposition the day the PML(Q) members took oath as members of the Federal Cabinet i.e. 2 nd May, 2011 because the moment the PML(Q) members became members of the Federal Cabinet, their status has been changed in terms that from the Opposition Benches they were now members of the Treasury Benches and it would be an anomaly to presume that a leader of a party which is now effectively a member of the Treasury Benches continues to hold the office of the Leader of the Opposition even after his party is sitting on the Treasury Benches. So the vacancy according to me occurred on the 2nd of May, 2011 when they took oath, that is the day when the vacancy occurred. Mr. Chairman: Next point. Senator Mian Raza Rabbani: Finally, Mr. Chairman, what my suggestions is to what the order should be. It is proposed that the Chairman may consider the following amongst other facts while passing the ruling. 1. The independent members may within two weeks of taking oath, express in writing, their desire to join a political party in the House or indicate if they want seat on the Treasury, Opposition or Independent Benches.

60 2. That, should the independent member failed to make such a request, he shall be treated on the independent benches and will not be able to avail the parliamentary facilities of the Treasury or the Opposition Benches. 3. If the independent members form a group, that in terms of Senate business, they should be consulted and made members and Chairmen of the Standing Committees. 4. Once a vacancy has occurred, the members should not be allowed to switch their benches. 5. A member of a political party will be bound by his party Whip in terms of selection of seating on a bench till such time as he disassociates himself from that political party. Thank you sir. Mr. Chairman: Thank you.

61 Senator Syed Nayyer Hussain Bokhari: Thank you sir. We appreciate the patience that your honour has shown while hearing the arguments from both sides. My arguments would be only two points. One is, review of the verdict or ruling by the Chairman given earlier, the Chair takes it at later stage. The whole issue which is before this House right now is the order, you passed order on the 6 th of June, the operative para but I feel as that is matter of counting of numbers, where do the members stand whether they stand for Maulana Haideri or they stand for Ishaq Dar that is the controversy right now. It has been argued over here also and probably there has been a misconception that the members from the FATA have been denied right of vote and at the same time it has been argued that the members from the PML (Q) have been denied right to vote. This is a misconception but I would say that they did exercise their right whether the right which they exercise as was properly treated or rightly treated as a member of the Opposition or member of Treasury Benches that is the pivotal point which was addressed in the order of the 6 th June. As far as the members of FATA and two other from the province of Balochistan and the province of Pakhtunkhwa, No.1 from the province of Balochistan who is independent, their status has been recognized. The members from the FATA who were elected independently and they opted to sit on Oppositionãs Benches and they supported Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haideri and similarly one member from Balochistan that is Hamayun Mandokhel, he has supported Mr. Ishaq Dar. While coming to a conclusion what do the rules provide for that, what rule gives the authority under which the Chairman has exercised this authority. Many times during arguments Rule 2 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business has

62 referred by honourable members and quite at times it has been read. We have to see also what are the rules of the National Assembly and for that matter there is slight difference in both of those rules. The rules of the National Assembly which were amended in 2007, they incorporated another rule also which was referred by Mr. Raza Rabbani that is Rule 39 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the National Assembly. So, there is a difference between both of those rules, if we see page No.2 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the National Assembly åLeader of the Opposition means a member who is, in the opinion of the Speaker, for the time being leader of majority of the members in the Oppositionç. The word åmajorityç is missing in Rule 2 of the Senate. Rule 2 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the Senate says åLeader of the Opposition is a member of the Upper House who is, in the opinion of the Chairman of the Senate, for the time being the Leader of members in Opposition to the Government in that Houseç and prior to this amendment in the National Assembly there was a provision for an election of the Leader of the House but there was no such provision in the Rules of Business of the National Assembly and the Senate where there was an election. So, there could be an election, there is an election for the Leader of the House but there is no election for the purposes of deterring a person as a Leader of the Opposition, that authority rests with the Chairman and he has to take into consideration the strength of the Opposition. What is the strength of the Opposition? Presently the parties which are sitting in the Opposition are; it is JUI (F), it is PML (N), it is Pakhtunkhwa Milli Awami Party and it is BNP and it is Peoples Party (Sherpao) and Jamat-e-Islami, these are the

63 parties and apart from that there was a choice with the members who were elected independently. It has been argued also whether there are certain provisions that somebody gets elected on independent seats, he has to give a declaration within three days. There is an Article 51 also but that relates only to the elections of the reserved seats because strength of the reserved seats is based on the strength which a particular party has got in our House, it relates to that and in the National Assembly. Otherwise, independent members as it has been said that they are in the Treasury Benches, the Opposition and the independent, is there any provision in law, rules and in the Constitution which bars an independent member to sit at one time on the Treasury Benches and subsequently he can switch over to the Opposition Benches, there is no such bar in it, it is his own discretion. Political Parties Order, 2002 has also been referred over here and the extent of that law does not extend to Federally Administrated Tribal Areas but if we see that who can become a member of a political party and what are the provisions in Political Parties Order regarding becoming a member of a political party. The section 5 of this Order, it speaks; every citizen has only one bar, not being in the service of Pakistan shall have a right to form or be a member of a political partyÉ Mr. Chairman: Section 5. Senator Syed Nayyer Hussain Bokhari: Yes, Section 5 of the Political Parties Order and I will be referring to the Article 17 also. Mr. Chairman: That is the base.

64 Senator Syed Nayyer Hussain Bokhari: Thatãs the base and I am talking about the Political Parties Order right now. So, the Political Parties Order does not bar any citizen of Pakistan to become a member of political party except if he is in the service of Pakistan. That is the only bar on a person to become a member of a political party. It has been rightly said by Mr. Raza Rabbani that the only thing that has to be seen is whether a political party can operate and function in the particular area which has been excluded by statute that is one thing. People of FATA, they are citizens of Pakistan, you cannot deny them citizenship of Pakistan. When they are citizen of Pakistan under Article 17 and Section 5 of the Political Parties Order, they have got a right because there is no bar that citizens of FATA will not be entitled or cannot become a member of any political party. So, having been elected independently, when the political parties do not operate, they donãt have offices over there, they donãt have organizations over there, they cannot contest election on party basis. The elections are not held over there on party basis but being a citizen of Pakistan, he cannot be denied of this basic right to become a member of any political party, a political party which is recognized and registered with the Election Commission of Pakistan. There are certain provisos, political activities which are given in Article 17 for political parties which cannot function but a political party which is registered with the Election Commission of Pakistan, which is allowed to operate in Pakistan, I donãt think so any citizen of Pakistan whether he is from FATA or Balochistan, he could be denied the right of becoming a member of a political party. The people who have been elected independently, they have got a right to join any political party. If you see the strength which has been

65 mentioned in your order itself in para 22 and 23 of your order sir. The JUI(F) has got strength of 10 but they claimed that they have got 12. They have two other members from FATA. Can they be denied being a member of a Parliament and the common citizen that they cannot become a member of any political party? They can become a member of a political party; there is no bar on them. It is one thing. Secondly, your honour has observed according to your order that if a member from Balochistan who conveyed his intention and he has been treated according to his desire, according to his option, he has been treated as opposition member on opposition benches. The only controversy remains to the facts that which particular contender of this office has got more strength. That has to be calculated and your honour has rightly calculated it and come to a conclusion. The only controversial thing is that the members of the PML(Q) who have supported Mr. Ishaq Dar is to be seen whether they have been rightly taken or treated as members of the Treasury Benches or they should have been taken as members of the Opposition. They have got a controversy within their own party and for that matter they have already moved to the High Court and the matter is subjudice over there. The people who claim themselves to be the like-minded and the Secretary General of that like-minded faction you know, has gone to the Lahore High Court and the matter is still subjudice over there, there is a controversy between them, that is an intra party dispute. 6 O•Š B ‹ y U E B d:Lš• `F :@XÔjq :X ] :petition :1O C ! €94 E ¦ :~g2mCO ŒOj :KB OPQ gmjO v :f94 j4E Senator Syed Nayyer Hussain Bokhari: Sir, I have got it. The matter is subjudice before the High Court and that too

66 we have to examine along with many other rules which bar from having a discussion on the matter which is subjudice before a court of law. It is the Constitution of that political party and the provisions of their Constitution. How do they resolve their disputes? The intra party disputes, how are they to be resolved in the four corners and writ of their Constitution. It is important thing. If somebody feels aggrieved, he goes to the Election Commission. The Election Commission says we have got nothing to do with your rules; itãs up to you to decide it. The point is this that in the petition they have said that the elections are not conducted in accordance with our Constitution. We believe in democracy, all people sitting over here believe in democracy. Whenever, there is a dispute, say for example, if they contend that there is a dispute with their leadership and the decision is to be taken whether they to join the government or not to join government. Who will decide it? Itãs party itself who would decide it. It is the Central Executive Committee of the party which would decide it. Members of the Parliament of that particular party, they would decide it. How would they decide it? Obviously when you believe in democracy, the majority prevails upon the minority. Even in the House or even in any political party, the reasoning and the decision of the majority prevails upon the minority opinion. So, the majority decision of that particular party was to join Government and obviously the minority has to follow that decision or otherwise they have to quit the party. So, what I feel is this that if we take example of the members of the Senate from PML(Q), if you calculate them, they are 20, nine say, we donãt want to sit on the treasury benches and 11 says we want to sit on treasury benches. So, the decision of

67 majority would prevail and they have to go with the decision of the majority. So, your honour has rightly treated them, not to be members of the Opposition. If the Chair started recognizing the splinter group, then it will be very fatal for all political parties. It will be very fatal for all people believing in democracy. It will be very harmful to political culture. We want to discourage these sort of things. So, it was a simple mathematics and your honour had rightly observed about that. Now, there is another thing also, that is how have we taken up this issue before this House. Whether the issue which is being discussed right now today, is in accordance with the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in Senate or there is a deviation from it. Rules are always framed to regulate the proceedings and to regulate the business of a particular House. Professor Khurshid Ahmed has said that your judgment is property of the House and this issue was not raised through a motion. There is a procedure. Motion itself has been defined in the Rules of Business that what is the Motion? And then this was only raised through a Point of Order and if you see that on what issue there can be a Point of Order. Rule 216 deals with decision of Point of Order. åA Point of Order shall relate to the interpretation and enforcement of these rulesç.

The appropriate thing has been that a Motion should be there. No such motion was moved before this House. There have been argument of the residuary powers of the Chairman, that is Rule 237 that has been mentioned over there. That rule just gives

68 residuary power to the Chairman. There is no denial of it but at the same time on a particular point a decision has been taken and that decision is the property of the House and for reviewing it no motion has been moved and if had there been a motion moved, under Rule 10 there would have been decision of the House. The question should have been put to the House whether the House intends to have a re-visit or review of the earlier decision, no such motion was moved neither any opinion. Sir, I will refer Rule 210. Questions for decision. åA matter requiring the decision, the Senate shall decide by means of a question put by Chairman on a motion made by a member. So, we should not go by such procedure and we should not make precedents for future proceedings which were against the provisions of Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business.

No such motion, substantive motion was moved. Sir, I will not repeat the meaning of the word review which has already been referred by many members here. Review itself is a substantive right sir. It canãt be given under Rule 237 that this creates a right. There is no provision in Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business whereby giving a right of review even it doesnãt give an authority to the Chair also. These rules donãt give authority to the Chair to review except when there is sense of the House also and a question is decided by the House itself. Sir, when I am talking about review that it is a substantive right, I will be referring to a judgment, it is PLD 2007 Supreme Court, page 121, head note (b); Scope: Right of review were substantive right and is always a creation of relevant statutes on subject. Reviewing situations have been conferred with the consent of the parties as it is always conferred by the statute. I am relying on it B B PQ6 ‹ P •R P Q Lei :9Y2:OC Vrefer :L] :KOOO :9jß 2:Kv7 ::?>@:K : So, this case relates to Ombudsmanãs case, Capital Development Authority went in a review before that. Once it was turned down, 2 nd time they accepted then the matter went to the Supreme Court then Supreme Court held that. The Ombudsman Ordinance, 1983 does not provide provision for the review. So, review itself is a substantive right and that canãt be created under Rule 237.

It has to be specific conferred by the statute on authority/forum/courtç. The words are statute on authority/forum/court for it to exercise the same. Now sir, when specifically the rules do not provide for a review and there is no statute on it, so giving or creating a substantive right for a particular party, is not in the interest of the justice. What I feel is that the verdict/ruling given by your honour earlier, isÉÉÉ Mr. Chairman: You mean to say the Rule 237; the residuary powers cannot be exercised in view of the judgments of the Supreme Court. Senator Syed Nayyer Hussain Bokhari: Exactly sir. What I feel is under 237, the business of the House can be regulated but review itself is a substantive right, this is what the Supreme Court says. That right cannot be created under an inherent or residuary power. So, keeping in view my submission before you, I would be requesting that the decision which was earlier taken was on the factual side and the members from FATA who were independently elected and the members from PML (Q) had exercised their right and your honour has very rightly treated them on the treasury benches and on the opposition benches.

Let me remind you what you said on 8 th of June. You said: åI have been hearing the members on the issue with regard to the notification which has been issued to appoint Molana Haideri as the Leader of the Opposition. There is a division in the House. I can see that which is very visible. Legal complexities are involved in the matter which I feel must be resolved as per rules, law and Constitution. Suggestions have come yesterday that the legal experts be heard and the issues be determined after hearing the legal experts in the House. In my view, these proceedings will have a very long and historical impact on the future parliamentary traditions and practices in Pakistan. Keeping everything in mind, I have decided in the interest of justice, equity and fair play to hear the legal experts in the matter. What is the format that has to be decided. I would like to invite Molana Haideri sahib as well as Ishaq Dar sahib to meet me today after the sittingÉÉç etc. I think having sensitized the problems and the legal complexities which have been raised in this House on 6 th and 7 th June, I think and I will prove, it is well within your legal and constitutional right, what you are doing is the right thing to do for justice with the

73 issue; one must not be apologetic. To err is human.
