"content": "This Bill, as it is, does not respond to some of these concerns and we must demand from the Government to do more than what it is doing. What we are seeing is possibly a mismatch of ideas and proposals here and there that do not respond to a well thought and holistic policy. For instance, if you look at the way the Government has organized its mineral exploration strategy, you will find that the Chairperson has actually commented on how the human resources are being split between the Ministry of Mining and the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum. What informed the split of these two Ministries does not appear to respond to any logical or rational explanation. The logical thing is that mining is mining. I cannot imagine oil being anything but mining. We should have one policy and clear strategies on how we will do this and make sure that no powers are concentrated on any individual no matter how trustworthy he may be because the forces of corruption will not let him stand.
