Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, Clause 5 of the Bill should be amended by renumbering. Part “a” is being renumbered and b also changes from Cabinet Minister to Cabinet Secretary. Part “c” brings in the new definition of youth and persons with disabilities. Those are the amendments provided for on the Order Paper. I want to emphasise part “h.” In the proposed new sub section 16, by deleting paragraph “a” and substituting thereof the following new paragraph. “Facilitating affirmative action to ensure that disadvantaged groups access employment and have opportunity to participate in economic spheres.” Basically, we are emphasising on affirmative action because this includes disadvantaged groups which includes women, youth and persons with disabilities. The rest is as provided for on the Order Paper."
