    "content": "So, those are the only amendments we are proposing to this Act and I do urge that the House supports and approves this Bill to allow for these amendments. Also, we will be urging that the House does support the ongoing judicial reforms. We will also be asking that judicial reforms alone are not enough. Judicial reforms without reforming the police are a half done job. It will be a half baked job. We must, as we carry out judicial reforms, move with speed to ensure that police reforms are equally carried out. That is necessary. Apart from judicial reforms and police reforms, we also need to reform our prisons, so that the entire system of administration of justice right from the arrest of the suspect to the investigations, to the prosecution and to the adjudication of the cases, the sentencing and eventually the carrying out of that sentence through our corrective institutions - the entire system of administration of justice - is reformed. So, those are some of the areas we will be coming back to this House to seek your support. For today, I do move that these amendments be allowed. I move and ask the hon. Attorney General to second."
