    "content": "Thank you, hon. Chairlady. I do not have a problem with (b) because the substantive 10A is subject to (b). But with regard to (c), which I suppose is going to be (b), that is not subject to the Evidence Act. The reason why I was saying that the victim or the complainant can obtain an advocate is this: There are very many organizations that provide free legal aid, including Clarion. I have done that before myself, in which I have given pro bono services to a number of those victims. If you request from those institutions, they will always be happy to represent you particularly on cases that are personal, including rape and the rest of that class. I am proposing and persuading my colleague here, that it should not be the victim himself or herself giving oral evidence of himself or herself, or giving oral submission and written submission at the close of the proceedings. There should be an advocate. That would be cleaner and neater."
