    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to first thank the Chair and Committee for this piece of legislation. It is important that Parliament gets to know and also reviews or allows any piece of legislation that borders on this issue. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Chair of the Committee on Delegated Legislation for the work that they have done. It is important that Parliament familiarizes itself with all legislation that is done by other statutory bodies because in so doing, as representatives of the people, we are then familiar with what it is that has been done by these bodies. In the past, we have come across legislation that to some extent negates what was intended by the main statute. For us to then have a proper way of bringing this delegated legislation to Parliament, it is important--- Since we will have an opportunity to look at the provisions of the Act during the Third Reading, there are certain areas what we would want done in a different way. But suffice it to say that it is a useful legislation. I want to support and congratulate the Chair of the Committee on Delegated Legislation for her work. We will be able to make amendments during the Third Reading. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
