I just don't see the point of this bill. It's like, why do we need a whole web-based platform just to track the status of projects? Can't they just send an email or something? It seems like a waste of time and resources to me. Plus, who's going to be responsible for maintaining this platform? It just seems like unnecessary bureaucracy to me.
