    "content": "My Committee considered four matters that fell under it and also considered the reports submitted by the seven other committees. Pursuant to Standing Order No. 199 (6), we consolidated all the reports and made them one Report, which we tabled on 15th October 2020. All the matters that were raised by the Bills were advertised through the daily newspapers on 30th July this year. I can confirm that all the memoranda and presentations made by stakeholders and others were duly considered. I will ask the other chairpersons to give a synopsis of their own individual amendments. The four amendments that fall under the jurisdiction of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs speak for themselves. What I will say more or less applies to the other Committees so I will try to save time. I plead with my Co-Chairs not to repeat what applies to the four amendments that I will stipulate. The first amendment that fell under my Committee is the Records Disposal Act. We sought to effect an amendment under Section 2(1) to include the environment and land courts. These are courts of the same status as the High Court that are now stipulated under the Constitution but were not then contemplated by the Records Disposal Act. The Committee supports the amendment and resolved that the provisions intended as proposed will empower the Chief Justice to make rules regarding disposal of records.
