  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Nandan, Satendra The new Fiji constitution states clearly: 'Religious liberty, as recognized in the Bill of Rights, is a founding principle of the State.' It further notes that: 'Religious belief is personal; Religion and the State are separate.' It goes on to explain, inter alia, 'the State and all persons holding public office must treat all religions equally.' Equality of citizenship and conscience are at the heart of the new Constitution
