If you look at the amendment in Clause 73, we are inserting a new subclause immediately after the renumbered subclause 1. This is to provide that all tender documents shall be sent out to eligible bidders by recorded delivery. This might look small, but we have had cases where mischievous people claim to have given you tender documents when they already have in mind the people that they want to give. We want to bring in this requirement that when they send out tender documents, there should be a record to show that, for instance, they sent to Hon. Jessica Mbalu, Hon. K’Oyoo and Hon. Gumbo for confirmation."}
