    "content": "As I look at some of these miscellaneous amendments I want to believe that there may be advice that respective committees may want to benefit in future. Miscellaneous amendments, as I understand them, are many amendments in a particular Act of Parliament. Those amendments are brought together. So, it is a little bit confusing for us and we cannot be able to give meaningful contributions if the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs does not tell us what the original Acts say, what the Senate is proposing and what the Committee is proposing. We need to be in a position to give meaningful contributions. I see the Committee has targeted six or seven laws for amendment, yet we are unable to access the original Acts for us to make some meaningful references. We wish that the Committee, in future, summarises the particular amendments, so that as we look at them we are able to understand what the principal Act says, and what the amendments are all about. As we talk now, we are a little bit confused by the Report of the Committee and the proposal that has come from the Senate."
