Friday in Cap-Haitien, Senator Jean Renel Sénatus, President of the Senate Committee on Justice and Security, accompanied by the First Secretary of the Senate, North nator Dieudonne Luma Étienne, chaired the first assizes on the draft new Penal Code and that on the new code of Criminal Procedure.

During this working day, to facilitate the application of these texts in the country, lawyers (students and professionals), surveyors, members of the police, municipal authorities, the socio-professional sector, among others, analyzed, formulated reservations and made recommendations and proposals on certain aspects dealt with in these two documents tabled in the Haitian Parliament https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-20902-haiti-politics-adoption-of-the-penal-procedure-bill.html https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-15467-haiti-justice-the-draft-of-the-new-code-of-criminal-procedure-is-ready.html

Once submitted to the Senate Committee and submitted to the Assembly, these comments will be taken into account when voting on these two bills in the Senate, Senator Senatus said.

In her speech, Senator Etienne, anxious to see a deep and equitable justice in Haitian society, reiterated her commitment to take an active part in the steps that contribute to the improvement of our judicial system.
