    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to thank all the Members who have contributed and those who intended to do so because they have all supported this Motion. I want to assure the House that before we bring a regulation for annulment, we usually approve it as a Committee. We have approved about 13 or 15 other regulations. We report to the House every three months of all the regulations that the Committee has approved, and we usually table them here. We recommend the annulment of regulations in extreme cases where the regulation-making authority refuses our proposal to revoke and amend the regulations. For instance, even on this one, I am not very pro-annulment. I was only recommending what they needed to do. However, when they refused to justify why public participation was not held, and regulatory impact assessment was not conducted, we said we would not agree. This is something that is affecting the people, and it is in contravention of Articles 118, 10, 259 and 47 of the Constitution. Thank you."
