I thank the Chairman for allowing me to raise this question. In March, the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government asked the committee to give him two months to come back with wording on the Thirty-Fifth Amendment of the Constitution (Water in Public Ownership) (No. 2) Bill 2016, to which this committee graciously acceded. It is disappointing that the Minister has not yet come back on this matter. I received a letter on it today but as I have had a lot of correspondence and contact from people on the status of this Bill, I am taking this opportunity to raise the matter publicly. Does the Chairman know the status of the Bill?
