    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I beg to move that the Senate amendment to clause 12 be rejected. It seeks to amend Section 119 of the Water Act which establishes the Water Tribunal. The Act established the tribunal but did not provide for composition of the tribunal members. The proposed amendments to clause 12 seeks to cure this gap of the law. The Senate proposed that the two persons appointed under category (c) be nominated by the Council of Governors. The tribunal set up under the Act was established to hear the disputes relating to the implementation of the Act. As an arbiter, it would be prudent that the membership of the tribunal be as neutral as possible to avoid conflict of interest in the arbitration process."
