Dear Editor
THE Special Committee on Constitutional Reform convened by the Honourable Prime Minister was plunged into a state of shock and deep mourning when we learnt of the very tragic passing of William Haslyn Parris.Haslyn was a critical member of the Committee, whose contributions and deliberations were always incisive, deep, masterful and invaluable.
The Committee benefited from his immense institutional knowledge, profound appreciation of the political, social and economic history of our society and keen interest in the future of our country.
Haslyn was possessed of a fine mind. Our work will be severely curtailed by his absence. We offer our most profound sympathies to his family on the loss of this great son of the soil.
A book of condolence will be opened in his memory at the Chambers of Hughes, Fields and Stoby, where the Committee met every Friday.
May his soul soar forever.

C.A. Nigel Hughes.
Convenor
Special Committee on Constitutional Reform
