"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I also thank you, Deputy Leader of the Majority Party, for donating one minute. We have decided to put this law in place so as to regulate the sector better. Therefore, we need to come up with a good law. There are a few omissions that I would like to note. The first item is that one of the functions of the board is to qualify who gets registered as a National Lottery Agency. However, the board does not have that function. Clause 24 clearly provides for the same, but it is missing in the functions. It is introduced again as a function of the board. The other issue is that monitoring the performance, fees, and levies that might come by is important. There is need to raise money to sustain the sub-sector even as we look at sustainability. We may need to consider a levy for any money that is accruable so that it can be used to run the sub-sector. I will introduce some of those issues as amendments in the Committee of the whole House. Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
