    "content": "uprooted. You cannot know what is ahead of the road because the road signs has been uprooted and sold as scrap metal. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this has been like a black market. We do not know who are buying the scrap metal. They do not care what they are buying. They can even buy parts of a car which have been removed from peoples’ cars. They just buy to re- sell them. Therefore, I think we need the council to come up with regulations and policies so that, at least, we can have order in the scrap metal business. I would like to suggest that this is done at the county level. We should have plants to recycle scrap metal in every county. In every county, everybody is responsible. If a part of your car has been stolen, it is still within the county and you can follow up and get the person who has stolen it. So, this is good and it is going to help the country. This is also going to create employment. If we establish a plant in every county, people will be employed there and there will be order in that business. I want to support this Bill. Again, the Council should be there. Then we can improve and bring order. There should be policies that scrap metal is not thrown anywhere. Sometimes, scrap metal is thrown in pits near homes, which pollutes the ground. This endangers the people and we need to have somewhere where we can take the scrap metal. I support the Bill. It is a good move to bring order in that business."
