[11] In Winters v. Ridley, 596 A.2d 569 (D.C. 1991), by contrast, the Resolution passed by the Council declared, among other things, that "[t]he Council of the District of Columbia never intended the [Good Time Credits] Act to apply to persons convicted for first degree murder.... The Council of the District of Columbia believed that the `notwithstanding any other provision of law' language of Section 801 of the Criminal Code . . . would exclude first degree murder from coverage of the Act as it applies to minimum sentences." 596 A.2d at 571 (Schwelb, J., concurring).
