“We understand why the law was there in the first place, so it’s not that I am suggesting that anything be done to pull it willy-nilly or that there is no need for some restriction, but rather than focus on absolutes, let’s focus on what the intention was,” Abrahams told the Sunday Sun.

Camouflage in all colour combonastions is one the newest fashion statements.
Perhaps he wants to clear the way for one of his friends who is a designer to reap some financial rewards from incorporating camoflage in their designs, my personal opinion opinion is this, If you want to wear camoflage, then go join the BDF.
is the Minister aware that Robberies were committed in Barbados by Persons Dressed in Camoflage, and looking like members of the BDF????
Just my Opinion.
