Parliamentary statements cannot override statutory text, and promissory estoppel cannot be invoked on the basis of legislative debate statements to prevent dilution of Government shareholding.

Private capital mobilisation should use competitive financing, guarantees and risk mitigation to expand productive employment and productivity.
Private capital mobilisation is treated as essential to employment generation and productivity growth.

Guarantees, risk-mitigation instruments, local-currency financing and lower transaction costs are identified as means to expand affordable and predictable access to capital.
