  • Debate on Constitutional Amendments Minister for Law K Shanmugam 9 Nov 2016
    DEBATE ON CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS MINISTER FOR LAW K SHANMUGAM 9 NOV 2016 1. Madam Speaker I rise to support the Bill. I. Intro 2. I will focus my speech on the proposal that has been put forward, for an elected Senate 3. I will make two points: This proposal is fundamentally flawed - flawed in substance, and flawed in terms of the process. Flawed in substance: In substance, the Workers’ Party had many objections to the proposed amendments. (a) Their proposal for an Elected Senate – doesn’t deal with any of the objections they have raised for the Elected Presidency. (b) In fact, their proposals make it worse. Flawed in process: Second: The process is so flawed that it is unworkable. II. Flawed in substance Let me deal with the substance. (1) Elitism 4. The first point that the Workers’ Party raises is the point on elitism. It’s a major objection to the Elected Presidency with the qualifying criteria. - Yesterday, Mr Chen Show Mao made this point. I think A/P Daniel Goh referred to it. Others have expressed it. - In their position paper, the WP talks about their objection in terms of this being restricted to “a super-elite”. And it narrows the field of candidates. 5. But then, if you look at the Senate proposal: it is to have 8 such people with the same qualifications as an EP should have. 1 It’s in the transcript, and I’ll read out the transcript later. Or, perhaps I’ll read it out now. 6. The exchange with Mr Dennis Tan, and Mr Perera – I said to Mr Perera, and I quote: “So in all senses, if I may understand it, what you are proposing, for a Senate is like what is being proposed for the Elected Presidency.
