Acting Attorney General Siromi Turaga says a strong warning letter has been written to Electoral Reform Commissioner Professor Wadan Narsey after he came out publicly with the Electoral Reform Commission report recommendations.
Investment Consultant Sandeep Singh raised the question during Dialogue Fiji’s Constitution review discussion at the Suva Civic Centre on who gave the authority to Professor Narsey to speak about the Commission’s report, as this authority only comes from the government.
Singh says that one commission has made a blunder with the Commission of Inquiry report and now they are talking about forming another commission.
He says this commission is coming up with speculations and prematurely talking about what has been done in the electoral reform.
He adds that this is very bad and he believes that whatever happened is very sad.
He also called on the government of the day to take action.
Responding to Singh’s question, the Acring Attorney General says the warning letter is within the terms of the contract regarding confidentiality.
He says Professor Narsey was totally out of order and the government has not made a decision.
Turaga stressed that the members of the Commission were paid to deliver a Bill, but reporting on the Bill is where the government comes in.
He made it clear that the government is yet to make a decision on the report of the Electoral Reform Commission.
