    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. It is good to clarify the position in the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill. It is supposed to be for routine matters that simply need to be brought in line with the main Act. It is not supposed to include substantive amendments which go into the core or change the goal of a statute. In this particular instance, in the Act we are dealing with and possibly in the next one, there are wide ranging amendments being proposed. We must look at our Standing Orders and practice to ensure that we bring proper amendments to statutes through proper Bills but not through Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bills."
