    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I agree with the Member for Rarieda. NEMA needs to be a body similar to what we have in the United States (US) or Canada as an environmental protection agency. It should have the teeth and necessary resources to perform its environmental functions. As a Committee, we are working so hard to ensure that NEMA is well resourced and it gets the necessary capacity that it requires. In most of the laws we are passing we are trying to do away with the ambiguities that have been there before. This Climate Change Bill will go a long way to enable NEMA to achieve some of those mandates. While I agree with him that there is a lot of laxity and weaknesses within NEMA, it is an Authority that we need. We have to work hard to ensure that it performs as expected."
