    "content": "Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also wish to contribute to this very important Bill that is not just a Bill but one brought pursuant to a requirement of the Constitution. The reason we are doing this is because it was long decided by the experts dealing in this area that for you to have a sound procurement system that helps the country, a number of issues are imperative. One, you must have a sound legislative and institutional framework. Two, you must have a sound institutional and management system of procurement; three, you must have serious procurement operations and market practices in your procurement system and finally, you must ensure that there is integrity in the procurement systems. So much has been said about this Bill. The Bill reads “Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Bill”, but you will agree with me - I have been listening keenly - you have hardly heard contributions relating to asset disposal. This is where we lose more money. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
