    "content": "The Bill proposes creation of a benefit sharing authority, which presents additional costs of governance of natural resources and a potential overlap with other Government agencies that are mandated to manage and license the use of natural resource in various sectors. This will present management and administrative challenges. What we are trying to say is that the Bill proposes to create those bodies without telling us where the money to run them will come from. The money is expected to come from the Exchequer and yet, we are already talking about a very heavy wage bill. The Bill proposes that we create that body and have the revenue sharing committees at the county level. All these are wage bill issues we need to consider. When you introduce an authority, a board and an office of director-general or whoever as it is indicated in this bill, it raises a lot of other issues."
