    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I think that these amendments we are bringing to Clause 43 are completely unnecessary. This is because the parent Act enumerates the functions of the National Land Commission (NLC). The functions that we are trying to tamper with are uplifted from the Constitution to the Act. So, we are spending time as a House legislating in vain because whatever we are trying to do away with is safeguarded by the Constitution. You will end up satisfying yourself that you have amended the functions of the Commission, which we have no powers to do. Any amendment that this Bill proposes in Clause 43 is null and void. That is why I thought what Hon. Kamoti was doing was helping us to save the time we are spending in doing an illegality. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady."
