Independent Senator Karina Goodridge is calling on Government to ensure legislation moving through Parliament should never be written in a way to cause uncertainty or āconfusionā to members of the public.
Goodridge, president of the Friends of Democracy, was interrupted several times yesterday and had some points struck from the record during her presentation on theĀ Domestic Terrorism Bill, 2026,Ā in the Senate chamber.
Attorney General Wilfred Abrahams, who introduced the Bill to the Senate, and Government Senator Ramon Alleyne, both rose on points of order or elucidation during her address.
