    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chair. I rise to support the amendment by Hon. Ichung’wah. Having said that, I want to support all the Members who have spoken to this. It is good for us not to set up very dangerous precedence because we will be reviewing many other institutions in terms of operations by law. We will be forced to mess up institutions by creating laws that are going to force those who are in office to be leaving office just for the sake of it. I think the NHIF is not a dysfunctional institution; it is actually functioning. Most of the challenges that are faced by NHIF are not matters of law. Some are policies; some are external factors which are not even directly touching on the NHIF. I think we should support and give them the necessary legislation so that in the future, for any other organisation which is failing, or when we want to change the law, we should not be changing having in mind that those institutions are failing just because there are people who are sitting in the board. The board is constituted by many other members who are meant to contribute positively to an organisation. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chair."
