    "content": "I rise to support this amendment. We have just defeated an attempt to remove the clause providing for surcharging of officers in the county government for bringing court action. There is need for clarity in interpretation of the Act itself which is just about to be enacted. When you have these provisions, whenever they are acting on the Act, it is going to be very clear to anybody that this is the meaning of these clauses and expressions. I would want to tell this House, as much as we are saying that some of these things are not important, if the issue goes to court, the court will be assisted by these explanations. If the law is not clear, sometimes the court goes behind"
