"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to assure the hon. Member that I share his concern. It is a serious concern. That is why before this House is a new comprehensive Companies Bill which we shall be debating when you direct. This is the most comprehensive reform of company law in this country for the last 60 years. Part of what we want to address is what the hon. Member has raised: How do we have a proper registration system whose integrity can be guaranteed by the Government? We will do so. I am happy to confirm to the House and the hon. Member that the Office of the Attorney-General has undertaken a comprehensive review of all its operations. It has received a grant from the World Bank. As I speak, we have consultants in place reviewing all the operations of the Office. Hon. Members are aware that only two days ago, this House passed a brand new Office of the Attorney-General Bill. All these are efforts intended at making sure that we get away from the old culture that suppresses commerce, thus frustrating hardworking businessmen. I hope that before I leave the Office of the Attorney-General, I will ensure that this is behind us."
