tell you who the President’s economic advisors in this country are. How do you ensure that Government projects are implemented in a coordinated manner when no one knows who advises the President on health matters? No one knows who advises the President on serious economic issues. We are now waiting for the President to sign the Bill we passed last week on interest rates. No one knows who advises the President on monetary matters. Under the coalition Government, we knew there was something called the National Economic and Social Council (NESC). We knew the experts working in there. Right now, ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I managed to agree with the Departmental Committee on Energy, Communication and Information but I want to disagree with them on this. We have passed laws in this Assembly where we will couch the terms of the law in broad terms taking into account any change that may happen in these kinds of organisations.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to thank the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Energy, Communication and Information for this. Because what we are dealing with is something very small and yet the Bill is something that has waited for so
