    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I would like to support hon. Githae. It is important that we remember the distinction between Parliament enacting legislation through a Bill and Parliament approving regulations made by other bodies that the Constitution has permitted to do so. I think what we want to do is to have flexibility. We want the Cabinet Secretary to move with speed in order to assist the Service to do what it is required to do. We do not wish that in order to achieve classifications of this nature, a law will queue in the Parliamentary Calendar as the Finance Bill or any other Bill would because that would impair the operational efficiency of the Service. So, I will counsel that we reject this proposal from my very distinguished friend, Chairman, Baiya, and allow the provision to stay as it is."
