The importance of recording elucidative notes on the clauses and articles of any Islamic Bill within the MPL

The drafting and re-drafting of the Bill is a process of hundreds of human hours and various reasons are presented for the choice and selection of particular clauses or articles. Failure to record this deliberation can only be a loss to the community for whom the legislation is drafted.

Furthermore, such records can positively reflect the reasons and implications of the selected options and clauses in contrast to the implications of alternate clauses. This could also be vital as a form of provided legal reasonings and implications relative to the terms of the clauses in the event of judicial reference.
