The bill secured its approval on Wednesday, following the deliberation and adoption of all 26 clauses during the Committee of the Whole.
The proposed legislation seeks to create a formal constitutional framework for state policing services, which would operate alongside the existing federal policing structure. This move signals a significant shift in the nation’s security architecture.
