"content": "Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT Clause 51 of the Bill be amended – (a) by deleting sub clause (2) and substituting therefor with the following new sub clause – (2) The Cabinet Secretary shall not unreasonably withhold consent to assign, transfer, and mortgage or trade a mineral right and shall inform an applicant of the decision within thirty days of receipt of an application to assign, transfer, mortgage or trade a mineral right. (b) By inserting the following new subsection immediately after subsection (8)– (8A) The Cabinet Secretary shall, in consultation with the Mineral Rights Board, prescribe criteria for the conditions required to be met by an applicant for an assignment, mortgage or trade in a mineral right. Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, we noticed that in the Bill, the Cabinet Secretary held powers to listen to cases, adjudicate cases; and even appeals would still come to him. We did not find this to be good in law. So, we had to change that clause."
