"content": " Hon. Chairman, for the benefit of Members, as you have clearly put it, the amendments are in the Order Paper, but nowadays we do not have the hard copy. So, I am just giving the justification as to why the amendments have been brought here. Hon. Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended by deleting Clause 7 and substituting therefor the following new clause— Functions of the Principal Secretary 7. The Principal Secretary in the Ministry responsible for matters relating to foreign affairs shall be responsible to the Cabinet Secretary and shall – (a) provide administrative supervision to the Service; (b) co-ordinate the performance management of the Service; (c) oversee implementation of programmes; (d) provide foreign policy advice to the Cabinet Secretary; (e) be the principal accounting officer and ensure efficient utilisation of funds and other public resources; (f) act as the point of contact for the Service; (g) advise the Cabinet Secretary on human resource matters; and, (h) perform any other functions as delegated by the Cabinet Secretary. Hon. Chairman, this is about human resource in the Foreign Service. We are just aligning it with the Public Service Commission (PSC) because all staff under the Foreign Service are under the PSC. So, we are just aligning it so that there is streamlining or consultation between their service and the PSC. I beg to move."
