    "content": "government. Government requires to know where many of the NGOs are from, what they are doing, and what achievements they have gained in their areas of operation. In the process, a lot of disputes would arise. Therefore, a tribunal becomes very important, because when these disputes between the government and these NGOs arise, there must be someone to listen to them. Many of them require legal decisions to be made. We also need a lot of fairness when a dispute arises. Tribunals also provide legal experts. That is why I need to identify myself with the nominees. Are the nominees qualified to perform these responsibilities? These are lawyers of good standing, and they are people from very strong backgrounds. To me, they are able to discharge the responsibilities of a tribunal. The Committee has looked at their Curriculum Vitae, which we have also looked at. There is fairness in terms of gender sensitivity, which is a requirement in our Constitution. They have also adhered to all the required age brackets. From this perspective, the Committee has done a good job. I urge that we support the nomination and confirm them to sit in this very important tribunal. I support."
