I needed to point out that I realise we have a heavy schedule and plead with hon. Members to work with us. However, arising from what has been raised by hon. Mbadi, in the past, the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bills have always contained mischievous amendments to our laws. We have always ended up making bad laws that were sent here by technocrats without consulting Parliament.
