(b) Tuan Pengerusi, untuk memasukkan perkataan “or” selepas 

perenggan (a), supaya perenggan (a) tersebut berbunyi, “(a) 
there was no evidence of buying and selling of a dangerous drug 
at the time when the person convicted was arrested; or” dan  

(c) Tuan Pengerusi, untuk menggantikan perkataan “and” dengan 
perkataan “or” di perenggan (c), supaya perenggan (c) tersebut 
berbunyi, “(c) the involvement of the person convicted is 
restricted to transporting, carrying, sending or delivering a 
dangerous drug; or” 

 Saya juga telah pun mencadangkan untuk membatalkan seksyen (2B), rang 
undang- undang tersebut dan saya percaya ini telah pun diterima oleh pihak kerajaan di 
dalam pindaan Jawatankuasa tersebut. 

 Keempatnya Tuan Pengerusi, adalah pindaan terhadap seksyen 3(2), rang 
undang-undang tersebut. Now, subseksyen tersebut pada asalnya berbunyi seperti 
berikut, saya quote, “Any proceedings against any person who has been charged, 
whether or not trial has commenced or has been completed, and has not been convicted 
under section 39B of the principal Act by a competent Court before the appointed date, 
shall on the appointed date be dealt with by the competent Court and be continued under 
the provisions of the principal Act as amended by this Act”.

Cadangan-cadangan pindaan saya Tuan Pengerusi, adalah: 

(a) untuk mengeluarkan perkataan-perkataan “and has not been 
convicted under section 39B of the principle Act by a competent 
Court before the appointed date,” supaya seksyen 3(2) RUU 
tersebut berbunyi, “(2) Any proceedings against any person who 
has been charged, whether or not trial has commenced or has 
been completed, shall on the appointed date be dealt with by the 
competent Court and be continued under the provisions of the 
principal Act as amended by this Act.” 

Tuan Pengerusi, saya juga telah pun mengemukakan dua subseksyen ataupun 
cadangkan dua subseksyen tambahan dimasukkan selepas seksyen 3(2) RUU tersebut 
seperti berikut. Saya quote cadangan saya tersebut iaitu subseksyen (3) yang baru, 
seksyen 3(3) yang baru.  

Saya quote, “(3) Any person who has been convicted of an offence under section 
39B of the principal Act which conviction is finally affirmed by the Federal Court may 
within one (1) month from the date of such affirmation by the Federal Court or from the 
appointed date, whichever is later, or within any other period allowed by the High Court, 
apply to the High Court to review the death sentence imposed on such convicted person 
and the High Court shall deal which such application under the provisions of principal Act 
as amended by this Act.” 

Subseksyen 3(4), “Any person acquitted of an offence under section 39B of the 
principal Act which acquittal is subsequently reversed by the Federal Court and 
substituted with the conviction may within one (1) month from the date of such reversal 
by the Federal Court or from the appointed date, whichever is later, or within any other 
period allowed by the High Court apply to the High Court to review the death sentence 
imposed on such convicted person and the High Court shall deal with such application 
under the provisions of the principal Act as amended by this act.” 

Tuan Pengerusi, cadangan-cadangan saya adalah beberapa tujuan di belakang 
cadangan-cadangan saya tersebut. Pertama sekali, seperti mana yang dinyatakan di 
bawah tajuk huraian di bawah surat saya tersebut, cadangan-cadangan pindaan kepada 
seksyen 2 rang undang-undang tersebut di atas adalah bertujuan untuk memberi budi 
bicara kepada mahkamah untuk mengenakan hukuman penjara kurang daripada 
hukuman penjara seumur hidup terhadap seorang yang disabit mengikut fakta-fakta dan 
keadaan-keadaan kes.
