    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I associate myself with the remarks made by the Chairman of the Committee on Delegated Legislation regarding the reasons these statutory instruments are being annulled. It is very important to state that all regulatory making authorities must comply with the law. First and foremost, they must comply with the Constitution followed by the parent Act and finally the Statutory Instruments Act. Failure to do so is fatal. It is also important to subject the regulations to public participation and this is mandatory under our Constitution. Finally, the regulation making authority must observe the timelines set, otherwise, their work would also be a nullity. In view of this Order that we are debating today, it has failed the test set out in the law and the only remedy available to the Committee is to actually annul the instrument in its entirety. For these reasons, I beg to second."
