    "content": " Order! Can you resume your seat? Hon. Members, hon. Mwadime has a further amendment to Clause 29 by including two new subsections. One, is that the Board of Trustees will pay at least, 10 per cent of monies appropriated by Parliament under section 29(2)(a) annually to the communities that have given out land. They will be giving people who have given out land at least 10 per cent. Two, which is subsection 4, that the amount that we are talking about will be apportioned to the community according to the size of the national park as set out in the Tenth Schedule. Members, we have referred this to the relevant Committee which is the Budget and Appropriations Committee to consider the proposal to determine if it is a money Bill or to what extent it affects the Exchequer. I have response from the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee who recommends the following:- “THAT, the Committee recommended that the amendment to the legislative proposal be published but with the amendment that the allocation to the communities be used to implement projects to benefit communities neighbouring the national parks”. The fact is that we have a regular amendment before us because we had this notice in good time. So, I will entertain it as a further amendment to that clause. So, I now propose that Clause 29 be further amended as proposed by the Member for Mwatate by (a) renumbering the existing provision; (b) inserting the following sub-clause- “The Board of Trustees shall pay out to the Fund at least 10 per cent of the monies appropriated by Parliament under Section 29(2)(a) annually to communities that have given out land to areas occupied by national parks. (iv) The amount specified under Subsection 3 shall be appropriated to the communities according to the size of the national park as set out in the Tenth Schedule and in such a manner and using such criteria as the Cabinet Secretary may prescribe.”"
