The House of Representatives Committee on Petroleum Resources (Upstream) and the Special Committee on Crude Oil Theft have resolved to jointly introduce five bills aimed at tackling key challenges bedeviling Nigeria’s oil industry.
The Chairman of both Committees, Alhassan Doguwa, revealed this to journalists in Abuja during a joint meeting co organised by the said committees.
Hon. Doguwa explained that the proposed bills are part of a legislative intervention to support national efforts in securing oil and gas assets and curbing crude oil theft.
He said one of the bills seeks to establish a National Commission that will be empowered to prevent and prosecute pipeline vandalism and other oil sector-related crimes.
He further explained that each of the five bills under consideration will be sponsored by different members of the committees, but will collectively be presented as committee-driven legislation to reflect the collaborative effort and seriousness of the intervention.
