"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I urge hon. Members to look at both the Bill and the amendment on the Order Paper so that when we are making the proposals, they reflect on those sections of the Bill. If you look at Clause 8(i), you will see that we are talking about the appointment of the Chief Executive Officer. He can still be returned by the Board through the instrument of appointment. However, we are clarifying that by saying that there shall be a Chief Executive Officer who shall be recruited by the Board on a competitive basis and recommended to the Cabinet Secretary for appointment. The bit on recommendation to the Cabinet Secretary was not there. In sub-clause 2, we are deleting the business of ten years experience to make it five years experience for purposes of allowing our younger professionals to assume positions. We should not just be against young age. Those are the two critical things. On sub-clause 4, the Chief Executive Officer shall serve for a renewable term of three years. The Fund deals with development and three years is too short a term. So, we propose that this be increased from three years to five years which is renewable."
