"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also wish to support this truly very timely Bill. I support this Bill, first, because it seeks to repeal a piece of legislation that has done injustice to this country for so long â that is the old company law. The old company law was borrowed from the English system that dated way back to 1948. Basically, legislation is normally meant to serve the economic needs and dictates of a country, particularly with regard to companies and the most effective mode of conducting business. It, therefore, always follows that the business environment and conditions keep changing. When legislation does not keep pace with the trading practices, challenges and so on, it exposes all the players in the country to a lot of mischief, crimes and general breakdown of the company law."
