Opposition MP Lenora Qereqeretabua says the Bill before Parliament this morning seeking an amendment to extend the liquor license from three to five years is “just a disorganised piece of writing from a disorganised government that cannot think ahead”.
She said the Government “just rushes laws through Parliament at 12 hours’ notice” while the other Government members “just sit there while this happens”.
“There they are, as we call them the Silent 25. The honourable Attorney-General insults this whole Parliament by introducing Bills on 12 hours’ notice – but they just sit there quietly accepting this insult,” Ms Qereqeretabua said.
She said when Fijians would be examining the historical record of this government, people would be asking the Silent 25 about what they did about it, and why they just sat there.
