    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me repeat. It states that: “If a House of Parliament does does not make a resolution either approving or rejecting any regulation within 15 sitting days after submission for its approval, the House shall be deemed to have approved those regulations.” So, it is important, for purposes of your Communication that the date of submission, and the 15 days in this Section, are included. The reason is that the Public Finance Management Act is peculiar. It is the only law where a gazette notice is published before approval. Our experience in the past, as the Committee on Finance and Budget, is that our recommendations on regulations on the Equalization Fund are never considered or amended once they have been gazetted. So, your Communication is important. If the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for National Treasury proceeds to borrow on the basis of these regulations before the approval or rejection by this House, we are in a position to challenge him. It is important from my experience."
