"content": "The fifth specific reason I am opposing this Bill is with regard to the Director of Public Prosecutions Act. This is sought to be amended to take away extradition proceedings from that Act to the Attorney-General’s Office. You know that the very nature of extradition is that it is criminal. The office that is mandated under the Constitution to deal with criminal acts is the DPP’s office. The Attorney-General’s Office is supposed to engage in acts of civil litigation and advise the Government. Whatever the interest would be to transfer extradition proceedings from the Office of the DPP is one that raises several eyebrows. That kind of amendment should not and cannot be allowed."
