    "content": "The other amendment relates to the explanatory memorandum. It is a requirement again of the Statutory Instruments Act that whenever a regulatory-making authority submits the regulations to the Committee on Delegated Legislation, they must have an explanatory memorandum. Many do not clarify the contents in the Statute and, therefore, we have received many inadequate explanatory memoranda which make it difficult for us to scrutinise the regulation. Therefore, this amendment is to further clarify so that we do not have the challenge of inadequate clarification. It further clarifies that the explanatory memorandum must indicate that consultation was undertaken and if it was undertaken, it must indicate in which areas and the stakeholders who were involved. Therefore, it is going to ensure we do not have a situation of nullifying many regulations on this account and ensure that, indeed, the law is followed."
