The Supreme Court, in its determination, has stated that several clauses in the Prevention of Terrorism PTA (Temporary Provisions) (Amendment) Bill are not consistent with the Constitution.
The Court asserted that these provisions need to be amended before being enacted into laws, Speaker Mahinda Yapa Abeywardena told Parliament today.
The Supreme court also held that clause 3 of the Bill needs a two-thirds majority in Parliament. That include all the members of Parliament.
