"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I oppose the deletion of Clause 14 because it gives validity to decisions of the board in the event that there is a vacancy. There are many things that happen to some of these boards. For one reason or the other, there could be a vacancy in the membership of the board. So, it is always good legal mechanism to protect the decisions that are made by such a board when it has such a vacancy. On the other proposals around the quorum and the board inviting experts and other persons who might add value, these are matters that usually go into regulations as opposed to being in the body of the legislation. They are useful additions but they should not be in the body of the legislation. These are matters that should go to regulations. Experts should be invited when the need arises. I oppose the additions."
