    "content": "The legislations that are proposed to be extended affect many different groups. However, it is important for all people to account for failures to implement regulations as they are presented. When you talk about 1,764 Regulations that affect over 400 Acts that are published, it is a very serious issue. Our able Committee has done a wonderful job in making sure that they have dissected and looked through it. They have also given the right opportunity for the persons who have sponsored the extension of these expiries to appear before the Committee, with respect. This way, they will be able to defend why and what has led to these regulations not being effected, in due course. The Committee has reported that, neither the respective Cabinet Secretaries (CSs) nor the Attorney-General (AG) has responded to the invitation that was given by the Committee in order to make sure that they seek further information or clarification so that they make an informed decision. In the absence of that, the Committee has recommended that we annul that request. I rise to support the annulment request and the Motion as presented and also the adoption of the report as presented by the Select Committee on Delegated Legislation in order to make sure that the right thing is done. There is no lesser House. In actual sense, Members of this House are elected from the entire county. If maybe, responsible persons or accountable officers appear before the National Assembly and fail to appear before the Senate, this will create a precedence that will render the Senate irrelevant. We cannot allow that. As such, I support the Motion to annul and that of adoption of the report."
