A public plenary session of parliament is scheduled for October 10 regarding the draft laws from the former Parliament of the Netherlands Antilles.
The purpose of the meeting is to formally decide on the continuation of the handling of the draft laws from the former Parliament of the Netherlands Antilles, submitted on Friday October 7th by the government.
It’s a procedural decision not to debate the contents of the draft laws at this point in time but to handle them at a later date as they are submitted by the various ministries.
Parliament has already started to deal with legislative changes that were submitted by the Minister of Justice Hon. Roland Duncan that were partly handled in the former Parliament of the Netherlands Antilles.
Prime Minister and Minister of General Affairs Hon. Sarah Wescot-Williams have been invited to the meeting.
The meeting of parliament will take place at 2.00pm on Monday in the General Assembly Chamber of the House of Parliament.
This meeting is open to the public and will be carried live on St. Maarten Cable TV Channel 20.
