    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the hon. Member, although we did not do an exercise in futility. I was with him and we were able to close all the illegal mining areas. On the period for this Bill, the Members who attended the stakeholders’ meeting are aware that we did it about a month ago. We collected views and we have reached that stage. I think the challenge at the moment for any Bill coming from the Government is the timetable for the Constitutional Bills. This is because even in the Ministry we have a Constitutional Bill that must be here before 28th August, 2011. So, most of us in the Government are trying to work on that other programme and that may delay this, but it is ready. As soon as the backlog of the Constitutional Bills is over, this is going to be our first Bill in this House. We are all looking forward to this, because we really think that it is going to transform the sector."
