At the briefing, the cabinet secretary also said that the government is thinking of amending the acts enacted between 1972 and August 15, 1975 instead of making a new one. 

He said the cabinet has taken the decision in the interest of preserving the administrative policies and strategies of the post-independence state for the new generation.
