A revised legal view on Samoa's political stalemate

Mr Asafo has since had a re-think on that piece and has now submitted a different view.

I now offer a newly revised legal view on the issue regarding the constitutionality of the activation of Article 44(1A) of the Constitution and the resulting warrant issued by the Head of State to appoint one more woman to parliament.

This view reaches a different conclusion to my first initial view published earlier in the week on Thursday 22 April 2021.
