Yes, he has a point there, Mr. Minister. Are they both dealt with substantively?

Millie, let us hear what Alfred has to say with regard to what the Minister is saying, which is that all the amendments by hon. Otichilo are actually either in the substantive legislation or are part of the mandatory requirements of the law of the registration that has been substantively introduced rather than be made part of other amendments of other legislation which is also part of the laws that have to be enacted. You can direct me on that one.

Millie, is it on the same point?

What about the provisions that the Minister has read that requires that the law to be enacted specifically on those issues within given time lines?

Very well. Before I come to the Minister, the Member for Lari--- What do you have to say?

I want us to make progress, Wilfred. The Minister said that you are withdrawing all the amendments proposed by hon. Wilbur Ottichilo touching on the National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA) – specifically the amendments to Clauses 16, 18, 37, 124, 149, 173 and the Schedule. Are you withdrawing all those amendments?

I understand that, but after the conversation that you had now, we are in agreement that these are issues that will be addressed in substantive or other legislations and that they can still be pursued by Dr. Otichilo at that stage. For now, am I correct in understanding that you are withdrawing all the proposals that have been placed on record by Dr. Otichilo, as suggested by your own Chair of the Departmental Committee?
