to him and to members of the Parliamentary Select Committee (psc)
are a nullity and entail no legal consequences. He said the ruling
would apply to any similar purported notice, Order or Determination
in respect of the proceedings of the Committee which would continue
solely and exclusively under the authority of Parliament.
