Rationale

This proposal aims to enshrine a simple principle in our Constitution: violence is for barbarians. Death penalty and physical punishment are prohibited already but only via ordinary law, which is easily amendable. Furthermore, this bill guarantees stronger protection for both children and refugees.

	Law	Previous		Proposed
1	Capital Punishment	No death penalty		Death penalty constitutionally prohibited; extradition refused to countries that use it
2	Corporal Punishment	Corporal punishment banned in justice system and schools		Constitutional ban on all physical punishment including by parents at home
