"content": "Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. In fact we really thought about this matter and we agonised over it as a Committee because we expected all this disagreement. However, we thought that this is a new and very expensive venture that requires very qualified people. We also realised that we had to get people from outside the country, who cannot be given a short contract and be effective. So, if we do not agree, at least, on the number of years, then definitely we will not get the best qualified people. We thought five years was the best period. In fact, if you look at the mining cycle, even before you extract anything--- I think you have seen it at the oil exploration in Turkana; it will take those five years before you do anything. Therefore, we thought it was actually going to attract better qualified people, and that is something that we should think about."
