 Mr. Speaker, before I move the motion, I want to sit in this honourable house that the Honourable Dr. Virginia Poir had a medical indulgence, so he rested comfortably, so he asked members to keep up with the thoughts and the prayers.

And we took this very decision that we would have foregone repairs on the minu filipa because of money that we would have spent there, it would have been better if we spent it on the Darren Sami stadium with us people. And as usual, they said, Mario and I fighting. As usual, big headlines. The parliamentary reps for Kastri's East and the honour of Mario and Michelle are fighting. Just like what happened last week with the speakers, we were thinking about moving giles, because with the speaker you are thinking about moving giles to stand on the side. And as usual, the Prime Minister is definitely fighting because those who wish and hoping for some fight, we will not fight. So if it's in the, so giles with the speaker will open in March. And there was no fight, so the opening of giles with the speaker, that's in the sadness. So Mr Speaker, we thought that we would to cause sports, sports equipment, which is very expensive with the speaker, to cause it to be cheaper, more affordable and to cause everyone to be able to pride themselves with the speaker. We have been there own sporting gear. We thought it would be worthwhile to remove that unsporting equipment with the speaker. And there's a whole range of sports. All the sports, including golf with the speaker, we have removed the fact on golf equipment so that golf can be people, most people can play golf with the speaker. And they can get the golf equipment a little cheaper because the fact will have been waived also on golf equipment with the speaker. We are equal opportunities with the speaker. So those with the golf will get their golf equipment cheaper because we've removed that on golf with the speaker. At the same way, we've removed that on football and that, once the sport with the speaker, the government will support. So we support football, we support cricket, we support that, we support golf, we support all the sports with the speaker. So we've removed that on the items. Swimming with the speaker, track and field, volleyball. Once the sport, there is no fact on the equipment. And finally, Mrs. Speaker, we believe it was necessary at this time to remove that on goods and services, imported by a person in conjunction with the government, embarks on the taking that has been approved by the cabinet. Because there we are at a stage where PPPs have to be the way that we have to go forward. Government, private sector investment programme must sometimes we have to go in conjunction with the private sector in PPPs. And if the government is involved in a sector or if the government is involved in some level of activity with people, we found it was cumbersome and even unfair to ask that fact be paid on the position of goods or on the position of services with the speaker. So I can assure you, this is not going to happen just like that with PPP. It's going to happen after we've looked at the project because there is a PPP act. You see how it goes with the speaker and then if necessary cabinet will declare that this undertaking will not be fact of it. Mrs. Speaker, fact legislation like the health and security levy is evolutionary. It's changing. The circumstances, you can never legislate everything with the speaker. This is why we change laws. This is why we have to change. We have to come for amendments with the speaker. Because nothing is cast in stone. So this is why we are asking the parliament to approve that motion, Mrs. Speaker. So that we may make sporting more affordable. And we hope, Mrs. Speaker, we hope that the private sector that imports sporting equipment, we hope that that reduction in price is reflected in the goods that they sell, Mrs. Speaker. We really hope that these VAT savings are not used also as for profit only. We hope that the individuals, so you can see a reduction. Because what that means is that there is an automatic reduction of 12.5% on all football equipment. So if a pair of boots cost $112, Mrs. Speaker, we expect that there should be a reduction of 12.5%. We expect it on newly imported goods. So we hope that the private sector causes that to be passed on to the sports people of this country, Mrs. Speaker. So Mrs. Speaker, these amendments to the VAT Act are evolutionary. We hope that we may not have to come back and change sometimes. But as in most things, Mrs. Speaker, things change. And if I can answer it at this time to make this amendment. I thank you, Mrs. Speaker.
