I have sent the amendments. I sent them within half an hour of Cabinet’s approval. It is fair that you know and the House knows that I requested His Excellency to release me immediately upon the approval of these Bills, so that I could do the letters to the CIC and the Attorney-General so that they could have the Bills published. As of yesterday, I am informed that the Attorney-General’s office was waiting for a letter from the Office of the President and I do not know whether they have got it today. So, therefore, all that I can assure you is that I have released all the Bills, raw or otherwise, to the CIC. I have this afternoon requested for soft copies from the CIC and the Office of the Attorney-General so that I can supply them. Personally, I cannot offer an explanation as to why these Bills have not been published."}
