    "content": " Hon. Temporary Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 26 of the Bill be amended— (a) by deleting the expression “two point five” and substituting therefore the word “two”. Hon. Temporary Chairman, the Bill as proposed by the National Treasury and Economic Planning proposes to increase the Railway Development Levy (RDL) from 1.5 per cent to 2.5 per cent. However, the Committee noted that that would be a 67 per cent increase in the RDL. Although there is need to balance between protecting the cost of items and raising revenue for the Government, we propose to reduce it from 2.5 per cent to 2 per cent."
