You are partially right but you do have to concede that delaying tactics by the opposition towards bills that they disagree with is very much part of the plan by opposition parties. By doing it this way, the CPC has taken that card out of the oppositions hands.

The CPC is just trying to implement their platform as quickly and efficiently as possible. After over 6 years of numerous delays and sometimes even the death of some of their bills due to opposition tactics, do you blame them?
