    "content": "I am not opposing my friend’s amendment, but I wish to request him to allow the person who is currently there to, at least, finish the remainder of his term; if it is more than two years he can still finish his term, and then he is not eligible for further appointment after the expiry of the current contract. Really, ask that we delete all the words after “person’s term” starting from “or” up to “whichever is sooner”. That way we will give him time to complete his contract. I know he is an old man and we do not want to cut short his term. I want to beg that you accept that I move that amendment. I beg to move that we delete all the words appearing in sublause (6) of the amendment after the words “person’s term” all the way up to “whichever is sooner.” So, the whole sentence now reads “On the coming into force of this Act, any person who immediately before the commencement of this Act held the office of the Commissioner of the Authority, shall, subject to the provisions of this Act, serve as a Commissioner for the remainder of that person’s term and shall not be eligible for further appointment.” That way we remove the two years limitation. I hope my friend will second me in that."
