"content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to join my colleagues, including the Chair, in saying that this Bill will, indeed, transform the way we manage our environment. For the first time, we are hearing of things like assessment of the net worth of our natural resources in the country. This is something which has not been there before. I am sure that it is not yet in many countries in Africa. I want to commend them. There is the United Nations (UN) standard guideline or formula for assessment. The fact that we are moving in that direction is very commendable. The idea of retaining the NCC is very good. This Bill has thrown a challenge on our table. Indeed, the Chairperson of the Committee on Environment and Natural Resources and her team have done a great job. This is, admittedly, a complex Bill. The research on it has been tedious but they have managed to dissect the issues involved and made them very easy to understand. They have come up with very good recommendations, with futuristic issues coming out of this Bill."
