    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I can see that the chairman of the committee is pleading with me to drop this amendment, but I want to explain myself so that he understands me. I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 16(2) be deleted. Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, Clause 16(2) that I am seeking to delete provides that the Board may, with the concurence of the Cabinet Secretary, amend any of the schedules to this Act. A schedule to an Act is part of an Act of Parliament. So, you cannot sit in your office and amend an Act of Parliament. It has to be amended in the same manner as you amend a law. So, that is why either we amend it to say the amendment goes through Parliament or we do away with it all together."
