"content": "bodies. Because Parliament is the delegate, it must supervise the exercise of that authority. This is the reason I find this Bill not only timely, but also useful. As the body in charge of delegation of authority to make laws as mandated by the people and the Constitution, Parliament must always check. It is to ensure that the various laws generated by various regulation-making authorities on powers delegated or donated by Parliament are applied in a manner that is consistent with the law, the parent law, and is in consonance with our values in principles of governance. In my view, it is not acceptable that a regulation-making authority can just make regulations and keep the regulations to themselves somewhere. Unlike the parliamentary Bills we make here every day… You know the whole citizenry and Members of Parliament will be informed there is a Bill on this-and-that coming for First Reading. We do public participation at the second stage. Of course, they will still be told: “This-and-that is coming. What are your views on it?”"
