    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 91 be amended– (a) in sub-clause (2) by deleting– (i) the word “ twelve” appearing in paragraph (a) and substituting therefor the words “six”; (ii) the word “ six” appearing in paragraph (b) and substituting therefor with word “three”; and (iii) the words “three” appearing in paragraph (c) and substituting therefor the word “one”; (b) by inserting a new sub-clause immediately after sub-clause 6− 6A.Where the holder is unable to give the required notice as provided under sub-clause (1) and the holder suspends or curtails production from a mine, the holder shall, within three days of the suspension or curtailment, notify the Cabinet Secretary. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the first set of amendments is to reduce the amount of time that a mineral right holder needs to give notice to the Government for curtailment. Twelve months is too long, so we are recommending that it be reduced to six months. Where it is six months, to three months and where it is three months, to one month. We are further giving a leeway in situations where the curtailment is forced by either issues of weather or insecurity so that they can curtail production but report to the Ministry in three days. That is the import of the amendment."
