While the Government has revealed its hand on a proposed law requiring citizens aged 16 and over to carry valid identification in public, it is keeping its cards close to its chest on the details.
Land and Legal Affairs Minister Saddam Hosein and Local Government Minister Khadijah Ameen yesterday declined to elaborate on the proposal, while Attorney General John Jeremie said he was out of the country and would have to seek further information before answering questions about possible penalties.
