    "content": "The Minister is here and he should tell us whether NOCK was not contributing to crisis last month and this month, because of their inability to supply fuel. The Procurement Act is very clear. It has not been changed. He has no powers to disregard the provisions of the Procurement Act. It is very clear that there should be no discrimination. The Energy Act is also very clear. It provides for importation of petroleum through open tendering system. Therefore, if NOCK will remain in the market, it will contribute like other marketers. It should be able to contribute competitively like other oil marketers. It should not be given 30 per cent to distribute because it has no capacity to do so. They do not have enough storage facilities. They do not even have enough petrol stations spread out in the country. So, how do you give an oil firm a 30 per cent share to import and distribute petroleum products when it does not have the capacity? Why do we deny more established firms a chance to bring their products in the market? We are in a free economy."
