Administrators opinion on the Attourney General position


  1. The AG is "not" an autonomous position but rather the AG serves at the pleasure of the PM.
  2. There are no specific qualifications for the position as there is for the appointment of a judge or a judge to the SC of C.
  3. The AG in a minister in the parliamentary cabinet and attends cabinet meetings as do all ministers.
  4. The AG does not or should not make arbitrary decisions without seeking outside opinion on major points of law particularly where a new law has been passed.
  5. If the AG disagreed with the various points of law in the ADP then there was ample time to speak up when the ADP was drawn up.
  6. The PM is the overseer of the cabinet and all ministers respond to the PM including the AG.
