The Minister of State hit the nail on the head in his reply. There is a conflict of interest between the functions of the two agencies. It is important to stress that we all support pensions fund money going into infrastructure where it will get a good return for the pensions fund. The trustees must make that decision and must not have the decision made for them by the NDFA. There is a fundamental flaw in the amendment.

Amendment put and declared lost.
