00:32And I was informed by the KKM's legislative council

00:39and also the development of medicine, that they are going through the fine-tuning, the finer details.

00:49And there, I think we will be able to summarize and formulate, and we'll be ready to get this presented at the table.

01:02And I don't know exactly when I will submit it to the cabinet.

01:11But I want it, you must remember that we want this in the session, this session 2, 3, 4, 5, 15.

01:20These 15 documents, 50 documents can be submitted, tabled and approved.

01:29So, as soon as we can do it in the cabinet, as a member of the cabinet, I will submit it.

02:11The final details now, the fine-tuning of the bill or the draft of the law.

02:18Do you expect it to be completed?

02:20The expectation, imagine we have to submit it in the session of parliament this time,

02:25so whatever we want to prepare as soon as possible so that we can submit it, we have 3 weeks, right?

02:30At least by the latest, first week, second week, or third week,

02:34and the first reading, at the very least, the last week, we will discuss and we will share to pass this bill.
