    "content": "Authority. So all this Act is seeking to do is to correct that anomaly. That is all this Act seeks to do. We ran through this with the Committee on Finance Planning and Trade, debated and deliberated on this issue extensively. We showed clearly that this is what has been happening. This is also what happens when you have the ports that collect revenues that are due to them. They collect it and we do not collect it on their behalf and transfer it to them. These are independent bodies and all we are trying to do is to remove future necessity for the Government to guarantee commitments by parastatals when they are able to stand on their own by use of the revenues that they earn. So, all that we are doing is to remove the Central Government from having to bear a burden which ordinarily should be with the parastatals. Therefore, as agreed with the Committee on Finance Planning and Trade. I beg to oppose this particular amendment."
