"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I further beg to move the following amendment to Clause 2(c):- (b) in the definition of \"intermediary\" by- (i) deleting the word \"lawyer\" and substituting therefor the word \"guardian\". The Departmental Committee on Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs foresaw possible conflict between a lawyer who represents an alleged victim, and who may also act as an intermediary. That is why we have proposed that the word \"lawyer\" be deleted and substituted with the word \"guardian\", which is conspicuously missing. The guardian who keeps custody of a child, who may become a victim of sexual violence has the right to give evidence on behalf of such an alleged victim."
