"content": "matter. They should delve into the matter and see if there is contempt, the extent of the contempt and the intention. The involvement of the DPP is a very important aspect. The Constitution talks about freedom of expression. Again, it should not just be freedoms which can eventually have negative effects. It should be freedoms which are positive and the expression that people are supposed to make should be towards the well-being of the nation as a whole. So, the freedom of expression should not be freedom for people to say whatever they want to say. That is also very important. The office of the DPP must be involved in the issue of prove of contempt, so that there is adequate proof that that is what was intended. It also goes a long way in the democratisation process that we have been yearning for as a nation. With those few comments, I support the Bill."
