    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to second the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill 2016. This is an omnibus Bill that brings together amendments to 36 pieces of legislation on fairly minor matters or what we call matters that are not substantial. The amendments brought together by a Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill usually arise out of the implementation of the parent Acts and many of the amendments in this particular one arise out of the need to align with the new Constitution and the language of the new Constitution. Also, the amendments sought to be brought in by the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill seek to bring clarity to matters that have arisen during implementation of the Act. The Bill passes the requirements of a Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill in terms of not amending substantial matters. I will just highlight a few laws that are of interest."
