    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity to contribute on this very important Motion. I join my colleagues in supporting the annulment of the regulations, but be that as it may, we have to critically look because we are annulling the regulations. So, what next? The problem lies in the Statutory Instruments Act of 2013. The way that law was written purports to take away the powers of this House to make law. That law provides only two instances: it provides that the Committee that looks at a statutory instrument, such as regulations, can either assent or annul it. That leaves the committee with very few choices, that is, to either accept the regulations as they are from the Ministry or annul them. If the Committee does not agree with a particular provision in a particular regulation or a statutory instrument, then that means the Committee has no choice but to annul that particular The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
