    "content": "THAT, Clause 5 of the Bill be amended— (a) in paragraph (a) by deleting the word “forty-five” and substituting therefor the word “sixty”; and (b) in paragraph (b) of the proposed new subsection (2A) by deleting the word “forty” and substituting therefor the word “thirty”. We are seeking to enlarge the time within which the parties are expected to submit their election rules to the IEBC. We also seek to enlarge the time within which a political party will determine disputes arising from party primaries. That is contained in 2A. It says: “A political party shall hear and determine all intra party disputes arising from political party nominations within 40 days”. We are expanding that to 45 days so that we give time to parties to resolve conflicts arising from party primaries. As you know, these are very contentious and emotional issues and parties require time. Thank you."
