    "content": "14A. Nothing in this Act shall limit the obligation of a public entity to disclose any contract-related information pursuant to the provisions of Access to Information Act, 2016 and such other guidelines as may be issued by the Government from time to time. This amendment is from the National Treasury and it is very good. This New Clause will ensure consistency with the Government policy and law on disclosure of information relating to public projects. Never again will somebody hide information. The moment a contract is made, that entity cannot hide it. It must be put to the public, the way it is provided for in the Access to Information Act, 2016. I support the National Treasury because there are times when people want to hide, they do not want to make full disclosure of a project. If a project is being built in my constituency, we must be told if it has been built with the budget, grants, or loans. We must know the amount of money used and the interest of the Government. All these must be made clear. Full disclosure is important."
