Evaluating policy impacts is something that is largely confined to select academia circles with much of the boarder society glued up as targeted eyeballs for sexed up debates churned out by news television networks.

For a nation with the largest democratic base in the world, sadly, one hardly hears of any constructive policy debate in parliament.

The discourse in parliament has touched such low levels that sometimes entire working sessions are washed out because the opposition does not want to hear anything and the government feels more secure in governing a hapless nation without being accountable to parliament.
