"content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, I stand to oppose this amendment. We need to differentiate between giving an opinion and giving a vetting clearance. There is nowhere in the world where you have an intelligence organisation that does not give an opinion on individuals and institutions. Even when you want to form an Non-governmental Organization (NGO) or a trust, the last thing that the Government does is to get an opinion of that organization from the National Intelligence Service of any country. Even in devolved democracy like the USA, the President gets a brief from the National Intelligence Service of that country on what happens. So, it is not vetting. It is a brief that every intelligence unit over the world gives. I think hon. Members do not need to worry because even this august House, Parliamentary Committees have been receiving briefs from the NIS over candidates."
