Speaker of the House, Dr Jiko Luveni.
Speaker Dr Jiko Luveni has ruled that matters raised by Biman Prasad about the Fiji Sun cannot be raised in Parliament by way of misrepresentation.
In an earlier sitting Mr Prasad, National Federation Party leader, had referred to statements made in response by NFP president Roko Tupou Draunidalo in the Fiji Sun.
Ms Draunidalo had criticised a report in the Fiji Sun “because the report tried to denigrate the NFP.
Dr Luveni said the matters could not be raised by way of personal explanation.
She said: “It is not a matter that is personal to the member raising the issue and it is not a matter of a personal nature reflecting on the honour or integrity of that member.”
