    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also rise to support the Committee’s Report. From the Report, the annulment of these regulations is a straightforward matter. What comes out is the issue of public participation. The truth of the matter is, Article 10(2) (a) of the Constitution is very clear. It is part of the values and principles of governance. They include patriotism, national unity, sharing and devolution of power, the rule of law, democracy and participation of the people. That is also clear in Article 118 of the Constitution. So, in a situation where people do not adhere to the constitutional provisions, automatically these regulations must be annulled and the Ministry given a chance to go through the right channel to make the regulations. So, without much ado, I want to support the Committee’s Report and say that we annul the amendments to the regulations. I support, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Thank you."
