    "content": "This is with regards to the issue of the annual report. Our worry was around financial reports that as part of the annual report, we should have financial reports of projects which have been completed and are being operated by a private party. What is being operated by the private party must be part of the annual report. If you are collecting money from the Expressway and are collecting tolls and you are a private company, those details will not be part of your private records. Those must be included as part of the annual report. The other important thing I wanted to mention, and I wanted Hon. Ichung’wah and the House to listen, is that the other very important amendment that we are making here is that the private company must also bring their financial reports as part of the annual report, so that we are able to tell how much money they have raised from that project. The other important thing we are adding is that the Cabinet Secretary shall submit a copy of the annual report to Parliament, so that Parliament is seized of the matter and what is happening in each and every area. The Committee has also taken that into consideration, so that the role of Parliament is not lost. I beg to move."
