Justice Minister Dr. Ngosa Simbyakula says Government intends to table amendments to the controversial Public Order Act during the current sitting of Parliament.
Dr. Simbyakula says the idea is to ensure that the Act is amended before Parliament is dissolved in May.
He says in line with President Edgar Lungu’s directive, his Ministry is currently carrying out consultations with various stakeholders with the view of coming with possible amendments.
Dr. Simbyakula has disclosed to QTV in an interview that so far his Ministry has received an overwhelming response from stakeholders.
