on Justice, Law and Human Rights
Bills 50 and 52 of 2020
Mr Chairman, before I look at the proposed Bills I wish to make a few general observations.
You and I well know that this consultation process is just for show. We also know that when the Bills eventually find their way into Parliament, they will be fast tracked under Standing Order 51 and that will be the end of it all.
Even then, I consider it my duty to appear before you to record the Fiji Labour Party’s position on the Bills for the sake of posterity.
The explanatory notes to the Bills state that they originate from the Multinational Observer Group’s (MOG) report on the 2018 general elections.
