The words “inconsistent with the provisions of this part” do not affect the existing laws relating to libel, the existing laws relating to restrictions on the exercise of the rights with regard to association or assembly. That means that the existing laws mentioned in clauses (2) to (6) are not all rendered void under Article 8. The intention is clear from the footnote that is appended to article 15, where the reason for the inclusion of the word “personal” is given There it is said:
“The Committee is of opinion that the word ‘liberty’ should be qualified by the insertion of the word ‘personal’ before it, for otherwise it might be construed very widely so as to include even the freedom already dealt with in article 13.”
