    "content": "Secondly, much as I support the Supplementary Appropriation (No. 2) Bill, it is important for us to recognise the Ministry of Mining, Blue Economy and Maritime Affairs, a Ministry that had been forgotten. The Ministry was dead and buried. In the last financial year, I have seen tremendous progress from the Ministry. Almost 100 per cent reduction of the development vote in that Ministry does not go well. It is one of the Ministries that will contribute greatly and immensely. Given proper resources and funding, with the 970 different minerals that we have in this country and with a proper surveillance and security system, the Budget and Appropriations Committee ought to reconsider allocation to the Ministry. It might be a little bit difficult for now. Going forward, assuming that our revenue collection improves, I would request the Budget and Appropriations Committee to consider the little development allocation that was taken away."
