    "content": "(d) in sub-clause (6) by deleting paragraph (c)and substituting therefor the following new paragraph— “(c) “family member” shall mean a parent, brother, sister, spouse, cousin, aunt, uncle, nephew, niece or child, including a person who is adopted legally or for whom care was given by the member such that there exists a relationship in the nature of parent and child, and shall also mean a spouse of any person referred to in this definition and their children, and any other member of a person’s immediate family.” We are trying to elaborate on the declaration of interest by a Board member. The Bill requires the declaration of interest to be done even before one is appointed. We are providing that one should only declare any interest after appointment. On the other hand, the persons who constitute family members have been reduced. This is because in African culture, we have extended families. We are reducing it to only include the immediate families of members of the Board who cannot be said to be in conflict of interest. Thank you."
