    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, there are three sets of amendments to Clause 72. We agree with the Senate on the amendment to replace the word “Director-General” with the words “Chief Conservator of Forests” in sub-clause (1) because it is in line with the changes we have made. We also agree with them in deleting Clause 72(b) and replacing it with “public forests” because it is in line with the amendment of the National Assembly to Clause 30. We reject the insertion of new Sub-clause (1A) which says that the relevant counties will at all times be furnished with pertinent copies of all relevant documents maintained in the Chief Conservator of Forests register. The reason for our rejection is that Clause 2 of the Bill already provides for members of the public to inspect any register maintained by the Chief Conservator of Forests. Further, providing a copy of all relevant documents maintained by the Chief Conservator of Forests to all 47 counties would be too cumbersome. Our problem is the mandatory nature of that wording. The other issue is that they say we should add the provision that all registers maintained under this section should be open for inspection at the Office of the Chief Conservator of Forests. We reject this for lack of clarity. We agree with two of the amendments and disagree with two."
