Let's say I have the following sentence, 'Although the Government has introduced new legislation, the transport crisis is growing worse.' Now I have to complete the following sentence so that it has a similar meaning meaning to the previous sentence, but I have to use the boldfaced word.
brought
Although new legislation .... , the transport crisis is growing worse.
My version: Although new legislation has been brought about, the transport crisis is growing worse.
However, the answer key says: has been | brought in (by the government).
Is my version also correct and natural?
Thank you in advance.
P.S. This question comes from Certificate of Proficiency in English, Past Examination Papers, June 2006.
