    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, currently, Clause 7 talks about the Board being made up of 11 persons comprising of one chairperson and 10 other members. This amendment seeks to reduce the members from 10 to eight. If you add the chairperson to the eight, it now becomes nine. That is what I meant when I said we are reducing the membership of the Board to nine persons instead of 11. We are proposing to delete the word “ten” in Clause 7(i)(b) and replace it with “eight”, so that there can be eight members and one chairperson. That makes the entire Board membership nine. Secondly, we are seeking to ensure that the composition of the Board meets the one-third gender rule as well as regional and ethnic diversity requirement. This is what we have introduced."
