    "content": "do not think the CS has any ability to come and create new things because they will be going beyond the mandate that is given under this Act. The second part is that the regulations should not make some unusual and unexpected use of the powers conferred to it by the Constitution or the Act. In this case, you notice that the Ministry of Lands is trying to create regulations to do with issues of natural resources. These are things that could be handled under the Ministry of Petroleum and Mining and Ministry of Environment and Forestry. To be honest, everything that we do is on land. Housing and even schools are on land but you cannot say that because everything is on land you can legislate for everything. It is important that we annul this so that the Ministry can note and the National Land Commission (NLC) can also note their mandate and constrain themselves to things that are in their mandate. With those few words, I support the Committee’s recommendation to annul these regulations in totality and hope that they would be brought back with those changes already appearing in them. Thank you."
