I beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended in Clause 9 in subsection (1) by – (a) deleting paragraph (b) and substituting therefor the following new paragraphs- (b) is removed from office for breach of the provisions of chapter six of the Constitution; (ba) is deregistered by a professional body for professional misconduct; (b) inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (d)- (da) is convicted of an offence under Section 78 of this Act. This relates to vacation of office. The Bill provides: “Is otherwise unable or unfit to continue serving as a member of a Committee”, but the Committee is deleting that and inserting, “(b) is removed from office for breach of the provisions of Chapter Six of the Constitution or is deregistered by a professional body for professional misconduct.” We are trying to be a bit more specific as to the reasons for vacation of office. There are some offences that are listed in Clause 78 and we are bringing them here, so that if you are convicted over an offence in that clause, then you should vacate office. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
