"content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to reply. (a) The Persons with Disabilities Bill received assent on 1st December, 2003. The Act came into force on 25th June, 2004, through Legal Notice No.64 of 2004 except for Sections 22, 23, 24, 35(1), 35(2), 39 and 40. The Ministry is liaising with the relevant arms of the Government to identify sections of the Act which are in conflict with other laws prior to gazettement of particular sections. In addition, there are sections of the Act that are already in force, but cannot be implemented due to lack of rules and regulations. The National Council of Persons with Disabilities has engaged a consultant to facilitate the drafting of rules and regulations which will enforce the implementation of the entire Act."
