    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I beg to move: THAT, Clause 59 of the Bill be amended by— (a) deleting subclause (1); (b) deleting subclause (3); (c) inserting the following new subclause immediately after subclause (3)— “(4) Any criminal proceedings commenced under the provisions in the Third Schedule proposed for repeal before the commencement of this Act shall be continued.” We are making some deletions and adding a new sub-clause. The rationale is to maintain the existing model of declarations to entities that directly supervise the conduct and ethics of the various categories of public officers. Secondly, to save the conduct of the ongoing investigations and cases pending before the court brought under Section 42 of the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes Act, 2003, which is proposed for repeal."
