"content": "It is true, first and foremost, that the Statement as framed by Sen. Malalah; the Standing Orders do not allow the use of Statements to perhaps promote debate. It is supposed to raise a specific issue as requested by the specific Senator. It is not like a general issue about betting and gambling and so forth. Looking at the way the Statement was framed, I hold the view that it relates more to the regulatory issues because the action that triggered that Statement is an action by the Cabinet Secretary (CS) to suspend licenses and other issues. In that specific context, that is why I am of the view that the matter should be handled by the Senate Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights. However, generally, I noted that some of the socio-economic issues around betting et cetera fall within the Senate Committee on Labour and Social Welfare."
