    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, thank you for listening to me. One of the key elements of legislation is that it must be progressive. It can be very difficult to put an amount, but it should be an amount not exceeding so that it leaves the other aspect of controlling the amount to be administrative. However, if Members oppose this, the Fund will now be open. It will be exposed because it does not have any cap. We are introducing a cap of a maximum of five per cent. If you oppose this one, the implication will be to go back to what is in the Bill where there is no limit. So, it is a progressive way of saying we have introduced the limit. Later on, we can also introduce a cap on how much is left to do the administration. Members, we are not saying five per cent but, rather, we are saying an amount not exceeding, just like in the CDF where we have been told the administration is an amount not exceeding 6 per cent. It can be 2 or 1 percent as long as it is not above 5 percent. So, we are introducing a maximum."
