    "content": "(a) in sub-clause (3) by deleting the words “fourteen days” appearing immediately after the words “not later than” and substituting therefor the words “forty-eight hours”; (b) by deleting sub-clause (5); (c) by deleting sub-clause (6). The Committee is of the view that we need to reduce the period within which the Service can make a decision on an application for legal aid - from 14 days to 48 hours. This is because some of these cases are fairly urgent. We do not see the reason the Service should take 14 days to make a decision. Forty-eight hours from when the application is lodged are enough. In the second proposed deletion, we are deleting to remove duplication because Clause 44(5) is similar to Clause 44(2)(c) and Clause 44(6) is also similar to Clause 44(3). That is meant to clean up the clause. We urge the House to agree with the Committee. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman."
