"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I am looking at the gist of this amendment by the Leader of the Majority Party. It is in relation to the chairperson of the board. He says one should hold the relevant academic and professional qualifications, including a university degree in any field relevant or related to irrigation, agriculture, finance, law or business. If you compare that with the Chairman’s amendment, which wants one who holds relevant academic and professional qualification, including a university degree or its equivalent in any field, you realize they are saying the same thing. I would be more comfortable with the one by the Committee because it leaves it wide. It can go to law, finance, management and others because it is open. The Leader of the Majority Party is limiting it only to law, finance and the others you have mentioned. A chair of a board can come from any related field. Actually, they are saying the same thing. Even a gender expert can come in but we have said “relevant field”. The words are “relevant field”. We are saying the same thing except that the Leader of the Majority Party has limited it to certain fields. This one is saying “relevant field”. Relevant field can be any field that is relevant."
