    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, clause 85 of the Bill be amended by inserting the following new sub-clause immediately after sub-clause (4) — “(4A) The registered owner of a freehold land on whose land a petroleum resource is located, shall be entitled to a one-off payment equivalent to one percent of the local community’s share under Sub-Section (4). This is what we have just passed as a House as ten per cent. So, the import of this is that where petroleum has been located, the normal law is that you acquire that parcel of land through compulsory acquisition and pay that person the market rate and chase him away. Then the neighbouring members who are neighbouring that person whose land has been acquired will continue benefitting as part of the community share. So, I am proposing a one-off payment for that person who will be kicked out of their land forever and for life. Thank you."
