MONROVIA – Senator Darius Dillon (CPP-Montserrado County) has submitted a bill that seeks to amend several portions of the National Code of Conduct, especially relating to the use of government properties for political activities. In his bill, Senator Dillon laid emphasis on Part 5, Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 of the Code of Conduct. In his proposed amendment, Sen. Dillon wants the law to be applied both during and after work hours. The current law mandates officials of the executive to resign two years to an election year. In his opinion, officials of the executive should be given dispensation in the exercise of their political rights, especially during electoral processes.
