SC registrar seeks record of NA sessions

ISLAMABAD: Registrar Supreme Court (SC) Registrar Ishrat Ali on Tuesday sought the record of five National Assembly (NA) sessions.

Last month, Speaker NA Raja Pervaiz Ashraf wrote a letter to the Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) showing the sentiments of the lawmakers on the legislation of the SC bill.

As per details, the SC registrar’s office has sought record of NA sessions held on April 6, 10, 17, 26 and 27. The minutes of NA standing committee on Finance have also been sought by the SC office.

Earlier, the NA speaker’s office reportedly refused to provide the record on verbal orders but despite written orders, the said record has not been given to the SC registrar’s office.
