[PASSED] Amendment to Article 1 of the Criminal Code (Defamation)
#22

I've included the original section number of bribery and indicated that it is to be stricken from the legislation. I should also note that as NHC pointed out here, the section number was wrong and repeated '8' twice. So this amendment should have the added effect of correcting that error.

Quote:(9) Defamation shall be defined as the communication of false or grossly misleading information about an individual to a recipient, for the purposes of damaging the standing of that individual and done so with a reckless disregard for its factual accuracy.

(8) (10) Bribery shall be defined as the receiving or offering of undue patronage by or to any individual in order to influence behavior that the recipient would otherwise not alter.
