“Stop the romp”
By Steven | April 3, 2009
The beautiful and talented Claudia Geiringer debuts in the blogosphere with a plea to the Nats to take seriously their own Attorney-General’s legal advice about Bill of Rights problems with their legislation – and not railroad their dodgy bills through Parliament without allowing a decent chance to debate them.
[Update: Dean Knight weighs in here, making the important point that if Parliament expects the courts to defer to its evaluation of what limits on rights are demonstrably justified, it should, um, actually conduct that evaluation seriously. David Farrer also expresses concern that the Select Committee was bypassed.]
