    "content": "experiences so that young people in this country also understand that they can participate in tribunals and public bodies as long as they are qualified. With those remarks, I wish you well and request that Members approve these nominees this afternoon so that the sector can have a tribunal to hear and determine disputes that may arise from the Act and any appeals that may come from the sector. It is also important for us to remember that the objective of the Public Benefit Organisations Act is to create a self-regulating public benefits sector. For that, there is also the risk of non-disclosure because it is self-regulating. In addition, there is an overriding objective that initially and primarily non-governmental organisations also promote good governance and accountability. As you have seen, part of promoting good governance is ensuring that it is not being used for the proliferation of illicit financial flows that may be used to harm either the security or other aspects of our national economy. We urge those nominated to prioritise the country's interests when disputes arise. Let them know that even the organisations that fund our public benefits organisations do so because of their interest. They are not doing so because of our national interest at all times. Let them be careful such that public benefits organisations are not used to advance the interests of other nations to the detriment of our national interest. I support."
