Our fifth petition is No. P00022/21, from Mr. Neil Copland, stating that we "Require more than a simple Majority to enact legislation that restricts the personal liberty of the population as a whole." The secretariat advises that correspondence from the Office of the Attorney General is not forwarded to Mr. Copland and the committee instead waits until a further response has been provided. Have members any view or are they in agreement with the secretariat?
