"content": "They told him: “We were born here. We should be considered. We should have some houses when you build new houses here.” I agree with them. So, this piece of legislation will give the county governments and Government institutions the power to have their piece of land that has been surrendered by any developer the moment that happened. The communities in which this piece of land is surrendered to the Government or the county governments must always be consulted because people will be afraid. Yes, they have a posh, nice gated community, but they are afraid that the county government will take that piece of land and probably do something contrary to what they would want. I am telling them not to worry because no Government should come and build something within your area without you being consulted. You will be consulted. There will be public participation. So, if a Government wants to build an industry in your area and you think that instead of bringing development, probably people will start complaining of smells and all that, you can say no. The Government will not do so. So, I thank the Senate Majority Leader for bringing this Bill. I ask every other Senator to support it."
