About the show:
At a forum organised by the Singapore Academy of Law and the Law Society of Singapore, Minister for Law and Home Affairs, K Shanmugam discussed the constitutionality of Section 377A of the Penal Code and the government’s recently-announced decision to repeal it with members of the legal fraternity. From practicing lawyers to law academics, from the panelists to the audience members, all were unanimous that there was a significant risk that Section 377A could be struck down in future court challenges. What are the consequences of that? Should it be the courts or Parliament changing our laws?
