    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I fully support the amendment. However, as it has been the practice throughout, there is no timeline which is given to the authorities to make a decision. They can take a year or ignore a matter all the same. I do not know how we can do it procedurally. Whenever authorities are given discretion to make a decision, there must be a timeline within which to make that decision. Giving them an open cheque means that they are bound to abuse the discretion. It really is not a fair administrative practice to do that. We need guidance on how to tighten it up. It runs through the entire of the amendments that the Committee has moved."
