"content": "Lastly, I want to thank members of the public who sent us more than 1,500 memoranda and the more than 200 stakeholders who took their time to share their views with us. We tried as much as we could to carry their views. This debate has demystified the fact that there were no major amendments and public participation was not an exercise in futility. We have all seen the proposals by the members of the public and I want to thank them. They should not tire and next time when there is such a Bill, let them give their views because they have seen their views count. Hon. Speaker, I beg to move that the Finance Bill be now read a Third Time. Lastly, it will be very wrong if I do not appreciate the Members of the Committee; we never struggled to get quorum. In fact, most of the time we were full House. Out of 15 Members, we were always 13, 14 or 15, and yet our Members are from across the political divide. They sat with us and gave us ideas. They are still with us here to make sure that this exercise is worth. This was a demonstration of what teamwork can possibly achieve."
