    "content": "THAT, the First Schedule be amended- (a) in sub-paragraph (c) of paragraph 7 by inserting the words “influence peddling” after the words “engage in”; (b) by deleting sub-paragraph (f) and substituting therefor the following paragraph- “(f) advocate hatred that constitutes ethnic incitement, vilification of others or incitement to cause harm”; (c) by inserting the following new sub-paragraph after sub-paragraph (h)- “(i) use state resources for partisan campaigns”. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, in doing so - and the political party barons need to hear this - we are trying to insert the words “influence peddling” after the words “engage in” for the simple reason that we would not like political parties or any other person to influence that particular procedure. Secondly, in the new sub-paragraph “h” we are intending to curb the use of State resources in partisan campaigns, which is one issue that we have all been grappling with for a very long time. I think this is the opportunity to correct that."
