    "content": "Clause 7 is on negotiations. Basically, there are two entities here: the Cabinet Secretary (CS) and the Mineral Rights Board (MRB). The Senate felt strongly that there should be firm negotiation between the CS and the MRB. We felt that the decision making, which they proposed, was not placed on any of the authorities. Therefore, there was no ultimate conclusive authority to make that decision. Moreover, we felt that MRB is an advisory body to the CS. In that matter, the executive authority of the Ministry lies with the Cabinet Secretary (CS). On that basis we rejected that amendment. Clause 9 is about the discovery of the minerals. We agreed with the Senate on this amendment, because all that the Senate wanted was that once an investor discovers a mineral and reports to the Ministry of Mining, the Ministry should give an acknowledgement in writing to ensure that the person who has discovered the mineral has the first right to mine that mineral at the appropriate time.
