"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Report is straightforward. I do agree with the Senate's proposal that the Director of Veterinary Services should replace the Attorney-General. Indeed that is in order. The Director of Veterinary Services is the technical officer in charge of matters of fertilizer and animal foodstuffs. It is quite befitting. The Attorney-General can always be available to offer advisory services to Government institutions. That aside, I am a little bit concerned with the way the Board is being constituted. Governance is the key issue in the management of our institutions in this country. It gives sweeping powers to Cabinet Secretaries just to appoint the Chair to directly source an individual. That will not be okay for this country. There must be mechanisms and systems of appointment. Boards should be independent. They represent the governance part of our institutions. The manner in which we constitute Board members and the chairs is very key in the management of The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
