"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. As we pass laws, it is good for us to be a bit more sober on the implications, especially on how much we attract investment flows for both exploration and eventual distribution. We have to be very careful for that business to make economic sense. I want to support the Member of Parliament who has said that there is no point of passing laws here which are unconstitutional. On the basis of those two facts, it makes business sense for somebody to bring his money and resources to invest in that sector that dearly deserves. We are in need of inflows to come into our country because even if we have resources down there, we still need to attract investors to accrue any benefits from those resources. It is important for us as a House, as we pass laws, to try and balance so that we do not discourage the inflows of investment and abide by the Constitution."
