Members of Parliament today could not agree whether or not the state should spend the portion of the oil revenue meant for future generations or save it.
The house is currently considering amendments to the Petroleum Revenue Management Bill but had to defer that of the establishment of a heritage fund today because of sharp division.
Whilst some argue the state must spend the heritage fund only after a period of time, others led by Majority Leader Cletus Avoka are of the opinion the money should be spent now.
Play the attached audio for excerpts of the debates on the Floor of Parliament.
