    "content": "“(3) Any statutory instrument that was in operation and that would otherwise stand automatically revoked on any day before the commencement of this provision, shall continue to operate and to have effect as if the instruments had not been automatically revoked on that date.” The import of this proposed amendment is to cure the effect or the impact of Section 21, which provides that the regulation shall lapse after ten years. Those regulations must be reviewed and brought to the Committee. As we know, we have almost 1,900 regulations that are lapsing as a consequence of lapse of time. We have said that the regulations must not lapse as a consequence of time. They must lapse because an event has taken place, and that event should include an amendment to the parent Act. If the parent Act has not been amended, why should it lapse? They should continue to operate. That is the gist of this particular amendment. Thank you."
