I move amendment No. 3:
In page 5, subsection (4), to delete lines 45 to 51 and in page 6 to delete line 1 and substitute the following:
"‘(3) A judge of the District Court exercising jurisdiction under subsection (2) shall not have jurisdiction to—
(a) conduct a preliminary examination under the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Act, 1967, or
(b) try an accused for an offence, unless that jurisdiction is exercised in the District Court District—
(i) in which the offence was committed, or
(ii) in which the accused resides or was arrested.'.".
This is a drafting amendment to make the provision easier to understand. We are trying to make our laws more easily understood for those of us who are not practising lawyers.
