    "content": "The third one is Clause 33. They have removed the review in the process. We put this clause in the Mining Bill to avoid people running to court immediately after the decisions of the CS have been made. So, you make this provision so that, at least, there is a review. He writes to the CS to reconsider the rejection of a mining licence. The review also helps in cost cutting. It acts like arbitration. We have removed the mining tribunals that were in the old Act. That one is really helpful. The other thing is compensation. We have fought and locked horns on this with the Senate. This compensation is very important for people who live in the mining areas. They need to be compensated when damage occurs in the mining zones. The other one is the representation of the Council of Governors. All the mining in this country is taking place in specific counties like is Kwale and Kilifi. We need to have a representative from the CoG sitting in the right spot, so that once a decision is passed, they are well informed. The other one which was very important for us as a community in the mining areas is the New Article 34 on the right of rejection by the communities. Communities can reject reconnaissance and prospecting licences for those who are doing reconnaissance and prospecting; communities have right to reject what they are doing on the ground. The other one was Article 40; I totally agree with the amendments that were moved by Hon. Chachu. With those few remarks, I support."
