    "content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, I would like to support the recommendation by the Committee. I agree that Krieger’s recommendation was that the commissioners did get into the work of the secretariat, but the difference between the Commission that Kriegler was evaluating and the Commission that we are creating now is clear as day and night. There were 22 commissioners who were vetted by nobody. They were just provided in a list by political parties. They were dealing with 210 constituencies. We are now dealing with nine commissioners, who will deal with seven elections and 290 constituencies. What time will these commissioners have, to interfere with the secretariat work? Moreover, the mistakes that had occurred before Kriegler’s recommendations were dealt with by the new Constitution. So, I am not convinced that we should not delete this Clause."
