    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Assistant Minister should, in fact, relax and listen to what we are saying because we are very clear on what we are saying. Most of us sit in the Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee (CIOC). This is an issue which we have tackled for over a year now. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we are not saying he cannot answer this Question. This Question is about timelines. We expect as the Ministry that oversees this process to go and get timelines from the Attorney-General, or from wherever else they will get it. He has answered this Question very inadequately. He has told us “timelines on or before”; then on the current status of the Bills, he has said “enacted”. Enacted to what? For example, I think it is just good to say “enacted into the election law”. And then, he says “publication date not applicable.” How can there be a publication date of something that has been published which is not applicable? Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we are saying to him, as the Ministry, his role is oversight. They do not generate the Bills. It is the Attorney-General who generates the Bills. But what he is supposed to do, he is not doing it adequately. Therefore, if they could not answer the Question themselves, they should have referred it to the Attorney- General."
