How can they resurrect a law that’s been repealed by the parliament?
When it was repealed it had a "coming into force" clause that made it effective one year from the date it was made into law. That isn't until June this year.
But, my understanding is that when laws are repealed it is not retroactive, anyway. All of the cases that are being tried under that law proceed as if the law still exists.
The whole thing is bizarre to me. When Parliament kills a law, it should be dead, it shouldn't just turn into some kind of zombie-freak law that sucks out our legal brains until it's through with all its victims. This clearly was not the intent of Parliament.
