    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 44 of the Bill be amended— (a) in Sub-clause (2) by deleting the expression “Section 68 ” appearing in Paragraph (e) and substituting therefor the expression “sections 68, 147, 148 and 149”; (b) by inserting the following new paragraph immediately after Paragraph (h) — “(ha) submit to the Authority the part in its procurement plan demonstrating application of preference and reservations schemes in relation to the procurement budget within sixty days after the commencement of the financial year; and”. This deals with the role of the accounting officer. He should ensure compliance with Article 68, 147, 148 and 149. The accounting officer in every State organ shall submit to the Authority part of its procurement plan demonstrating an application of preference and reservation schemes in relation to the procurement budget within 60 days after the commencement of a financial year. This is to enable the Authority to establish the compliance, for example, whether they are complying with the requirement that youth, people with disability and women must be given specific tenders. Each accounting officer, by that clause, is made to give reports to the Authority to ensure compliance of those reservations. I would request that you give it to my Member, Hon. Sakaja, to shed some more light."
