Temporary Deputy Chairman, this clause was subject of a discussion which lasted nearly 30 minutes, small as it is. We believe that this provision, as rightly put by the Member for Homa Bay, is too static and unworkable. We have been in this practice for a long time. The practice is that if there is an error, the final figure remains the same, but the rates will have to be adjusted accordingly. You also give the tenderer an opportunity to either accept or reject. When you make it rigid like this, it is not good."}
