    "content": "There are fundamental questions which have not been answered in the process of trying to determine whether that money should be borrowed or not. The first question is the issue of capacity. The money is being borrowed so that this country can build what they are calling a Second Container Terminal. Already, there is another terminal which has just been completed. We do not know whether it is being used or not because it has not been officially commissioned. This is a case where we are being told to borrow money to do another terminal and yet, there is another terminal which has been completed and has not been fully commissioned. The question is: Do we really need this additional capacity now? From where I stand, I imagine that the best approach would have been for the existing capacity to be properly made use of and then this House will be requested to approve additional borrowing for a second terminal. The second issue which is not clear is the issue of the Lamu Port, which is going to be constructed through the Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia-Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
