    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to thank you very much for giving me this opportunity. I rise to support this Public Service Bill 2014, which sets a broad framework on how public officers will conduct and regulate their professional standards in delierying service to members of the public. I want to say that even as we legislate, the most important thing, because we are a civilized society, is that we need to conduct ourselves in a civilized manner; even if we come up with good rules and regulations, we need to have good ethics and execute our duties to serve humanity. I am particularly drawn to Clause 5 of this Bill, which states the broad professional ethics that every public officer should practise while carrying out their duties. Public officers must carry themselves with honesty. For me, the concept of honesty is very important; when you deliver service to members of the public, you must be precise. We must say it as it is. If we have transparency and integrity of civil servants, there will be correct connectivity between members of the public and civil servants.
