    "content": " Hon. Temporary Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended by deleting clause 30 and substituting therefore the following new provision— “30. Section 4 of the Special Economic Zones Act is amended by inserting the following new subsection immediately after subsection 5— “(5A) The Cabinet Secretary shall, on the recommendation of the Authority, set the minimum investment amount to be invested in an area declared as a special economic zone.” The justification is that this amendment seeks to re-arrange the proposal because it is misplaced in the Bill. The Committee also proposes to remove the proposal that the Cabinet Secretary shall set minimum acreage of land in the Special Economic Zones as it lacks merit and is out- dated. In the current digital era and with technological advancements, the activities that may be done in some Special Economic Zones, for example science and technology parks or ICT parks, may not necessarily require large tracts of land to operate."
