    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairperson, I agree with the Leader of Majority. Additionally, if you look at Clause 11(2), in terms of how the Refugee Status Appeals Committee is to be constituted, we are talking of representatives of various agencies and departments of Government. These departments are to send one representative each. How does a single Government department, sending one representative, consider gender balance on one nominee? It is impractical. Therefore, in addition to the fact that gender parity is already a requirement under the Constitution, what Hon. Millie is proposing by this amendment is only practical in terms of nomination under Clause 11(2)(e), where three people are to be nominated. My problem with Hon. Millie is that she is imposing this amendment for all these representatives, which is impractical. I, therefore, oppose."
