NAB has requested the Speaker of the National Assembly to provide legal assistance in giving a statutory shape to the decision.
NAB has clarified that only complaints and allegations against parliament members will not lead to their arrest, and in case of any complaint against a member of parliament, the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Chairman of the Senate will be informed.
