    "content": "The justification for this clause is that Clause 2 of the Public Private Partnerships (Amendment) Bill 2012 has removed the Cabinet Secretary (CS) from the procurement process by making the PPP Committee’s decision final. This is the correct position in practice. Section 46 retains reference to Cabinet decisions under Section 54(3), which has been deleted by Clause 11. It is necessary to carry it through the amendment philosophy from this Section 54 into sections 56 and 57 by deleting reference to the words “Cabinet” and “Parliament” and substituting thereof with the word “Committee”. This is actually making the Committee the final decision maker because when you go to these other sections which still have the words “Cabinet” and “Parliament” it makes it ambiguous because in the other section we have removed “Cabinet”. That is the import of this clause."
