"content": " Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I encourage the Chairman of the Departmental Committee to be listening carefully. It is the same way I was accused of keeping quiet allegedly because I am used to saying ‘Nay.’ He is also saying ‘Nay’ because he thinks everything from Millie must be “Nay.” If you sit in this House, you will discover I am one of the best legislators. I do not think about parties when I do law because I know I will be subject to this law sometime in future. Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I beg to move: THAT, we renumber Clause 12 as Clause 12 (1) and a new sub-clause 12 (2) be inserted as follows: “In employing members of staff under sub-section 1, there shall be regard for gender, and regional and ethnic balance. Regard shall be taken to include youth, persons with disability, minority and marginalised communities.” Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I know that we have provided for this in the Constitution. However, because people always forget, even the Bible tells us to remind them even if they know. In law, we still remind people even when they know that we need to be inclusive.
