"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, reading the Bill I am happy with the establishment of the Council and also the powers and roles that it has been given. I think it has been given powers that it would require to be able to ensure that this Bill is operational. I am even very encouraged by the provision that appointments to the Council will be done in a transparent and competitive manner. I also like this trend where these appointments have to be approved by Parliament, which means that we will have a chance to ensure that those who will be given this enormous responsibility are people who can be up to the task. Of course, I am also happy with this trend where we are insisting that those who get these appointments must conform to Chapter Six of the Constitution. I think that is very important. There are times when we have had fairly capable people but due to maybe lack of integrity and commitment, they have not done well."
