By virtue of that principle, it matters little when the facts at issue occurred: in other words, whether they took place before or after the Member in question was elected to Parliament, the only imperative to take into consideration is to protect Parliament as such by protecting its Members.
Pamatojoties uz šo principu, nav svarīgs datums, kad notikuši inkriminētie fakti, tie var būt notikuši pirms deputāta ievēlēšanas vai pēc tās, ir jāņem vērā tikai Parlamenta kā institūcijas aizsardzība, aizsargājot tā deputātus.
