"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, it has been a long day and there are a plethora of amendments and sometimes it tends to turn into a mess of some sorts. I am open to assistance, but what I am against and what I was intending to cure is this requirement where you require a candidate to produce a balance sheet, an income and expenditure statement, a cash flow statement and audited accounts. All these things are lengthy. I have done a bit of accounting and I know even professional accountants have a problem with preparing cash flow statements. So, what is the purpose of this attempt to turn politicians into accountants? It is not our work. Who is going to finance all these because they are additional expenses? You have to get a professional, if it has to make sense."
