    "content": "(c) in paragraph (m), by inserting the words “including an undertaking that it will not be used as evidence in any proceedings” immediately after the word “information” appearing in subparagraph (ii). Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, we are proposing the deletion of the expression “any intelligence agency”. Clause 25 deals with the center reporting to the other entities. There is a reason for reporting to all the other entities except the intelligence agencies. I will read for you Section 25(b) in part: “Shall send reports received under this Act to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.” That is okay. The clause talks about “any intelligence agency”. Is it talking about the Intelligence Agency in Uganda or any other country and why? If you need to share reports with law enforcement agencies, you can go ahead. It is already catered for when the clause says:- “Shall send reports recieved under this Act to the appropriate law enforcement authorities. “Any intelligence agency” is an unbelievably wide term, especially because of the fear of the terrorism law and code being sneaked in from the back door; we do not see any value of sharing any information directly by law with the intelligence agencies. Those agencies can share the information in any other way. There is also a requirement to share it with appropriate law enforcement agencies. We do not see the value for intelligence agencies both there and in the following section. Therefore, I propose amendments to that extent as indicated in the Order Paper."
