    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I will be very brief. This Bill is fundamentally flawed. As a matter of fact, I strongly urge that it should be withdrawn and the content be considered seriously. Why am I saying so? I am drawing from my experience as a person who drafted the Environmental Management and Coordination Act. When dealing with different sectoral statutes, you are concerned about how to coordinate effectively. Clause 3 of this Bill says that its objective is to effectively coordinate the performance of competent authorities' functions. This cuts across various ministries and statutes. Nothing in this Bill will enable the Food Safety Controller to coordinate effectively. If you go to the First Schedule of the Constitution, even competent authorities like ministries are included in Article 6(1)(2) and (3). Those are not competent authorities for 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."
