    "content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, while appreciating what the Committee has done and the background, especially on Sub-section 3 of the proposed amendment; that the Commission must be constituted in its entirety, and that is correct, I want to persuade the House that we can cure the problem by proposing a further amendment to Clause 7(1), where we can make the appointment of the commissioners one term with a possibility of a renewal for an extra one term, so that administratively, whoever is appointing these commissioners can now stagger. In the earlier part of this legislation, we have recognized the value of experience and having people who have worked there before for continuity. That is why we are saying that five of the commissioners that will be appointed this time must have served in the previous Commissions. So, I do not know whether we can create a marriage somewhere, so that we do not export the problem in its entirety to the next Parliament."
