A proposed amendment to the Magistrates' Law is currently before the State House of Assembly. The Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice has clarified that this proposal is a private member's bill, not an executive bill. Its aim is to address structural challenges within the justice system.
The clarification was necessary due to controversy surrounding the proposed legislation. The Ministry of Justice's position is based on a longstanding government policy.
Further details on the proposal and its objectives are available, including the need to explain its origin and policy background.
