Answer 2

The correct answer is, "It allows lawmakers to act outside the rule of law."

This is true, because if lawmakers are making the laws in secret, they can bend the rules, without anyone knowing. Maybe they want to make a law that benefits themselves, but the rule of law says no. If they did it publicly, the public could protest. However, if it was a secret, the public wouldn't know until the law was already imposed on them.
