"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, most of the time, we do not have any legislation or a mechanism to ensure retribution or rehabilitation of a particular circumstance that was there. For example, apart from just paying for crops that have been damaged, it is important to ensure that the land if for whatever reason, a volcano has taken place or is no longer in use because wildlife ran right through it and maybe the crops have been affected as a result; one way or another, activities must be undertaken to try to reclaim, rehabilitate and put back a reset of the circumstances that were there before. At Clause 4, the issue of Government versus Cabinet Secretary is clarified. This is to ensure that direct responsibility is put on the Cabinet Secretary. In this particular clause and in its amendment, monies annually allocated for this purpose by the National Assembly need to be appropriately distributed by the Cabinet Secretary and at the end of the day it is possible for this money to be used at the right time. Madam Temporary Speaker, in Clause 5, the whole amendment has to do with various places and issues including the issues of time and within 12 months’ limit. Those particular amendments are now specifically put at the various subsections in the particular Act. This clause is about mainly deleting a sentence and substituting thereof with another statement."
