    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 30 of the Bill be amended- (a) by deleting the proviso to subclause (3) and substituting therefor the following new proviso- \"provided that- (i) where a presidential candidate is supported by more than one political party, only the votes cast for the parliamentary and civic candidates of the respective parties shall be taken into account in calculating the amount payable to the respective parties; and (ii) in the case of a political party with corporate member parties which opt for joint nomination of parliamentary and civic candidates, its share of the Fund under paragraph (b) shall be further distributed proportionately to the member parties in reference to the total number of votes secured at the last general election by each parliamentary and civic candidate belonging to the party\". (b) by inserting a new subsection immediately after subsection (3) as follows:- (3A) For the purposes of paragraph (ii) of the proviso to subsection (3), a political party with corporate member parties which opt for joint nomination of parliamentary or civic candidates shall, on the date for the nomination of candidates, indicate to the Commission the party to which each candidate belongs. Again, this is to give clarity."
