    "content": "This amendment is in bad taste, callous and it will usurp citizens’ power and grant it as a discretionary power unto the Registrar to continue with the abuse witnessed in the prior adoption of the current Constitution. Under Clause 17(a) of the Bill, while the land law presumes that all land transactions must be registered, it will be retrogressive to only demand that an interest shall only arise based on the existing entry in the register in a manner proposed by the current amendment. On Clause 37(4) of the Bill, it is unquestionable to obligate a spouse so wronged and robbed of a matrimonial interest to file a suit in court to enjoy interest. Consent in matrimonial property should remain as it is and not in the manner prescribed in the current Bill. This Bill takes away citizens’ rights and we must reject that. Clause 38 of the Bill lacks judicious explanations why such simple matters which can be resolved by the Registrar or through Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanisms have to be adjudicated by the courts."
