    "content": "The Constitution does not envisage a situation where the Commission shall only sit there and wait for the Inspector General to take action and then purport to review or ratify or rubber stamp, to use a better term. The mandate of the Commission in so far as exercising disciplinary control over the National Police Service is express. It is very clear under Article 246 of the Constitution. Therefore, any Bill that purports to redistribute these functions and mandate to other bodies and persons is unconstitutional and, therefore, null and void. If you look at the National Police Service (Amendment) Bill, which is not the subject matter for now, you will see very clearly what I am talking about. These powers have been transferred in totality to the Inspector General of the Police. A new Setion 8A has been introduced in the National Police Service Bill that The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
