"content": "I thank Hon. Raso for that contribution. To speak to the matter that he raised, this New Clause 33D speaks more to the rights of those that may have had contractual engagements with the council before the enactment of this law. It reads that: “The Bill is amended by inserting the following new subsection 33D. Any reference to the former council in any written law or in any contract, document or instrument of whatever nature shall, on the appointed day, be read and construed as a reference to the successor council”. This takes care of all the contracts including contractual obligations or pending bills, that have existed with the council registered under the current Order when they transition into being registered under an Act of Parliament, when this House approves this Bill."
