"content": "Madam Temporary Chair, actually this is something we have discussed with the Minister. However, my view is that when you want to get expert opinion from accountants, they do not have to be members of the Board to give you that opinion. I am pleading with the Minister to understand my point of view. When you want to get expert opinion on gender issues, I do not think they have to be members of the Board. It was my thinking that this being a very professional Board, anyone who gets co- opted as members of the Board, really ought to be an engineer. However, that does not bar getting outside opinion from experts. I mean we do not monopolize knowledge but I think it would be good to restrict the Board; both permanent members and co-opted members; as registered engineers. I must say that we have discussed it with the Minister."
