We received very serious letters from the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) and the Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU), which told us that this is totally out of line. We looked at the complaints contained in those letters and felt that they had no grounds whatsoever. The issue might have gone to the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs as well. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we were jokingly wondering whether officers of trade unions, which might want to object to this Bill, like Francis Atwoli, who is paid a big amount of money but keeps on attacking Members of Parliament all the time, should not declare their salaries and pay tax. We felt that the salaries of officers of co-operatives and labour organisations need to be administered under this Bill. With those remarks, I beg to support."
