"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also rise to support this very important Bill. We are all aware that recently, our chiefs were staging very serious demonstrations because they were anxious about their working conditions and even their future. Their fate was not known. I am excited when I read Clause 19 where the positions of those servants of the people have been saved. Chiefs and assistant chiefs are respected and responsible leaders in the areas they operate. At times, the assistant chiefs do not sleep because they are concerned with the security of the people. They are also concerned with border disputes. They also assist in the estate administration matters. It is also important that the national Government links well with the lower level of the Government. Therefore, this Bill is creating that communication linkage. These chiefs have already served well. It is prudent that they be allowed to continue without any fear of the incoming devolved units. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support."
