Does this make sense?

"Under the guise of being interested in the welfare of its citizens, the government introduced a new policy that would in fact, benefit big business whilst taking away the rights of consumers."

I am trying to utilize the word "guise" in a sentence.

It sounds fine. 'Whilst' sounds old-fashioned to these American ears, but maybe it's still current in AusE.
