Broken promises #2: Corruption law reform

When the BHC report was released in 2004, DPP consultant Kulandra Ratneser said that more cases would have made it to court if the law (specifically, the Criminal Code Amendment Act) had been modernised.

In response, then-Premier Alex Scott promised that the PLP government would review Bermuda's corruption legislation. "We are going to review the laws," said Mr. Scott.

Alas, nothing has been heard of Mr. Scott's promise since.
