    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to second that The Public Procurement and Asset Disposal (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bills No.32 of 2021) be now read a Second Time. This is an important Bill that seeks to amend areas that have been causing a lot of inconveniences because of many processes for people or procurement entities. There are many procedures and hindrances that this amendment Bill seeks to address. This is a National Assembly Bill with specific areas that need to be amended. This is critical because it will create efficiency. It seeks to amend specific sections of the Act to ensure that proper processes are put in place. Basically, the Bill is about procurement processes and awarding of contracts, and it delves into the area of evaluation criteria. This is because procurement officers or entities start processes, but there is no clarity about the evaluation criteria. That creates a lot of anxiety. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
