    "content": "The Environmental Management and Co-ordination Act, section 129 of 1999 is amended in section 129 by deleting sub-section (4) and No 8 of 1999. substituting therefor the following new sub-section- (4) Upon any appeal to the Tribunal under this section, the Tribunal may if, satisfied- (a) upon application by any party, issue orders maintaining the status quo of any matter or activity which is the subject of the appeal until the appeal is determined; (b) upon application by any party, review any orders made under paragraph(a). (5) Any status quo automatically maintained by virtue of the filing of any appeal prior to the commencement of subsection (4) shall lapse upon commencement of this Act unless the Tribunal, upon application by a party to the appeal, issues fresh orders maintaining the status quo in accordance with subsection (4)(a). Basically, it is the current section of the Act to allow for the use of automatic conservatory orders of stay for any matter appealed to the tribunal with regard to environmental issues. This has the effect of delaying the implementation of either individual or Government projects. I beg to move and request the Chair of the Departmental Committee to second."
