    "content": "The Committee felt, and I think it was prudent, that it was good to clarify the length of time after which a serviceman, a servicewoman or an officer, who wishes to resign from the KDF, would have to wait post handing in their written resignation to the Service Commander or the Defence Council. It defines the amount of time they have to wait to hear back. The previous amendment only provided for an ambiguous and amorphous “reasonable time” for the Service Commander or the Defence Council to revert to that particular person. So, the proposed amendment seeks to remove the ambiguity as to when resignation is approved and takes effect. Further, the amendment seeks to allow Service Commanders to consider applications for resignation of an officer or a service member. That now is further defined from the ambiguous “reasonable time” to a more definite and definitive “90 days.” 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."
