The Fiji Women's Crisis Centre strongly supports calls for the immediate public release of the Constitution Review Commission's report and recommendations.
FWCC Coordinator Shamima Ali says the Constitution belongs to the people of Fiji, and the people have a right to know what changes are being proposed.
She says that keeping the report secret while urging people not to speculate is contradictory.
Ali says if the Government wants to avoid speculation and misinformation, it should release the report now and allow Fijians to read it for themselves.
The FWCC Coordinator says there is so little information for the public to work with and if anyone needs to remain calm, it is the Prime Minister and his Government.
Ali asks what is the secrecy all about.
She says even the media was not allowed to cover the handover of the report.
Ali stresses the public should be given access to the report without further delay.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka says the Constitution Review Commission report should be made public, and will be released after Cabinet meets.
