Kenton is doing his Communications IA on the topic: 'The CCJ - Promoting Effective Jurisprudence in Jamaica'. He has found a Cleaner article that he thinks may be helpful. His teacher has asked him to evaluate the article.
This is the article.
Show Pride And Go With CCJ - Government Senator
A long-standing Government senator said yesterday that Jamaicans would be lacking in pride if they dare to hang on to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council as the country’s final court of appeal.
Navel Clarke, a trade unionist by profession, said in the Senate yesterday that ‘we must show our pride’ and move away from the Privy Council and embrace the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) in its appellate jurisdiction.
They are begging us, they are pushing us, they have said things that I don’t think anybody with any pride would want to continue to endure,’ said Clarke, who has also lived in England.
The Government senator was making his contribution to the debate on three CCJ bills that are now before the Senate.
The debate had been suspended due to a boycott of the Senate by opposition members but two of the eight, Tom Tavares-Finson and Kavan Gayle, showed up yesterday.
Clarke, noting that former Prime Minister Hugh Shearer in 1970 proposed that Jamaica join with other regional countries to form a Caribbean Court, said that for the Opposition members to now turn its back on an idea cultivated by one of their leaders defies logic.
