"content": "We are thinking of various legislations and this House must support them. Without a proper legislative policy, we cannot have any other policy, whether economic or social that will work. The benchmark of any policy is going to be proper legislation. Therefore, as we support this Motion by Hon. Beatrice Elachi, it is vitally important to think of our role as a House. When the Government unifies this system, what will the Legislature do regarding that particular policy? We shall be called upon to develop a legislation, pass it and execute it. In the meantime, and as we consider that, let us ask the Government to detail which sectors will be recognised, what funding will be available, and what sort of mentoring is necessary so that at the end of the day, all SMEs are well policed and included in this unified policy which we are talking about."
