Constitutional Court rules against Article 190 amendment bill
January 8, 2014 5:20 pm
The Constitutional Court Wednesday ruled that the amendment to Article 190 of the Constitution was unconstitutional.
The amendment bill was aimed at allowing the government to sign international deals without having to seek legislative approval on a negotiating framework.
It was to allow the government to bypass the legislature to negotiate any deals except those impacting territorial integrity, sovereignty, relevant laws enacted by Parliament and the opening up of free trade.
The court ruled that the amendment violated Article 68, which prohibited the unconstitutional way of acquiring state power.
