    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended by inserting the following new clause immediately after clause 8- Amendment of 8A.Section 36 of the principal Act is amended by— section 36 of (a) by deleting Subsection(1) and replacing it with the following No. 15 of 2013. subsection— “(1) The unit shall assess the technical expertise of the contracting authority to procure the development, preparation, procurement, contract negotiation and management of a project under this Act.” (b) by deleting Subsection (2) and replacing it with the following subsection— “(2) Where the unit finds that the contracting authority does not have the technical expertise to procure the project under this Act, the contracting authority shall, in consultation with the unit, appoint a transaction advisor to assist the authority in the preparation, procurement, contract negotiations, and financial close phase of a project.” Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the justification of this is that the capacity of the contracting authority may be wanting in the entire Public Private Partnerships (PPP) value chain, preparation, development, procurement, contract negotiation and even management. Therefore, there is need for Section 36(1) to be amended by inclusion of the words “preparation, procurement, contract negotiation and management.” The scope of an advisor engagement under The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
