    "content": "but machines have depreciated; they have no value. In the real sense, we are privatising this community land. It is key that before further consultations are done, we must have a valuer to tell us the value of this community land and what the value of those outdated machines is. If we get a strategic investor, obviously one of the critical things he has to do is to modernize the equipment because they are outdated. This is again a challenge to the national Government. What they should have done is to modernize the equipment and bring in new technology so that as you privatise, it can attract a higher value. How do you privatise something when the equipment is outdated and obsolete? So, in this case, that is why hon. Members from the sugar growing regions are saying that the motivation is particularly on land but not on those machines that are outdated and have no value. I support the amendment and I am humbly requesting other hon. Members to come up and support this so that further consultations can be done in line with our Constitution. Thank you. I beg to support."
