"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, due to limitations of time, let me just refer this House to Article 71 of the Constitution. It talks about the role of Parliament in ratifying transactions relating to natural resources. Besides that, Parliament passed a Bill, now an Act of Parliament that is called Natural Resources Transactions Subject to Parliamentary Ratification. One of those transactions listed there is extraction of crude oil. How can it be today that an entire Ministry and Government can come up with a Bill that excludes parliamentary role in scrutiny and ratification of these agreements?"
