    "content": "place in accordance with Section 25 of the new Act. Most importantly, I want Members to know that even the transaction of business at the constituency level is not possible now. The staff who are supposed to be paid salaries by tomorrow will not be paid. I think we did not take a lot of interest when we were passing this Act. Section 12(2) says that at least three signatories shall be required for every cheque or instrument for actual payment or withdrawal of funds from a constituency account. It further provides that the signing instructions shall be such that there shall be, at least, one signature of an officer seconded by the Board and, at least, two signatures of two members of the constituency committee. The Committee is not there at the moment. This means that cheques will not be signed and the staff are supposed to be paid their salaries tomorrow. The appointment of the new CDF committees is spelt out in Section 24. It says that some of those to be appointed to the CDF committee are two men, two women and a person living with disability, in accordance with the regulations that are going to be proposed by the Board."
