    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we do have a comprehensive draft Bill to overhaul the Chiefs Act and obviously, looking at it, the part dealing with the engagement, remuneration and duties of the elders are included in that draft. But it does not prevent the hon. Member from proceeding on his own aspect of elders only. But we are coming up with a comprehensive overhaul of the Chiefs Act to consider various other matters. The other aspect, which I will comment on later, is what we think about this Bill, but this may not be the appropriate time. I am not encouraging him to withdraw. We just discussed that in our draft, we also have views on elders which we can bring as amendments, if the House allows, which are not very radical."
