    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chair, I beg to move:- THAT Clause 5 be amended by inserting the words “through a public and participatory process” immediately after the word “recommend” appearing in paragraph (b). The essence of this amendment is that this is a very important Bill through which we want to recognize the heroes who have done a lot of good for this country in different sectors; sports, environment and other areas. To receive acceptability, we need to have this through a public and participatory process that could mean something as simple as saying that you ask the public to nominate. You put a newspaper advert and ask the public to nominate heroes. Then in that way when you have heroes, they become acceptable to the public. It does not mean that the public will be the ones to select; you have a selecting authority but you get the public to be involved and then we own them."
