"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Mining law that we are repealing today was enacted in the 1940s when we were part of Her Majesty’s Government. That is where we are, as a nation, when it comes to the mining industry. I am really happy that many years later, we have done this. About 50 years after our Independence, let alone in the 1940s, we are not able to do much about this sector. I hope that this law will enable this country to make the best use of its resource base in terms of mining. I am sure the Jubilee Government had something in mind when they merged many Ministries and came up with a brand new Ministry of Mining. It was for a reason. They have a legal framework to do what they have to do."
