    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I am very proud of the work the Committee has done. The Committee on Delegated Legislation has long been made to appear simply as a conveyor belt for Regulations emanating from the Executive. Therefore, the bold move by the Committee ably chaired by Hon. Shollei is laudable. It is laudable in the sense that sports, arts and social development issues are important. Sports specifically has the potential of not only empowering our people economically, but is also a vehicle the country can market itself globally. But for a long time, we have had serious challenges in terms of funding sports and related activities. Therefore, it is important that Regulations meant to guide sports funding need to be crafted and enacted in a transparent, consultative manner with the involvement of key players and key stakeholders. Short of that, the Committee has done the right thing."
