Independent Senator Helen Drayton has warned the Government that the Miscellaneous Provisions Bill (No. 2), 2014 is a section 34 waiting to occur.
Senator Drayton made the comment while contributing to the Bill’s debate on Tuesday.
She noted that the Bill was missing a key part of the Legislation after which it was modeled.
People National Movement’s Senator Faris Al Rawi said the omission is a deliberate one.
He added that an omission of the clause can have a negative effect when it comes to prosecuting cases.
Senator Al Rawi also stated that the Opposition will not allow the law to be passed without the inclusion of the clause.
