    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Even though the nature of this Bill requires that the amendment must have gone through the CS Treasury, the fact that the Departmental Committee Chair has accepted it, we can assume that it went through the Treasury. However, as we move on, and as you clearly put it, we know that for any school a bus is no longer a luxury. It is important for purposes of exchange programmes but, as the Leader of the Majority Party put it, we have a problem of abuse of privilege in this country. There was a time when university lecturers were allowed to import motor vehicles tax free and the facility was abused. I wish there was a clause in that amendment that would take care of the abuse aspect. This amendment is a wonderful idea. The challenge is that it will be abused. How do we control the abuse?"
