    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I have a point of order. I want to seek your direction pertaining the Statutory Instruments Act. I listened to you carefully and I raised this matter sometime back and you said that in line with the Statutory Instrument Act, when regulations are there, they can be implemented pending a determination of the House. If I listened carefully, if a circular was issued from the Central Bank, it could circulate the regulation. This is my interpretation. The Central Bank is a regulator. It regulates the banking industry. The Governor is a knowledgeable person. He cannot just wake up and implement something which is not in law. So, if you mention that the Statutory Instruments Act can be implemented before Parliament acts then, from that context, he might be correct. We should, therefore, demand for the regulations to be expedited and brought to the House."
